[quote=Anonymous]For the life of me I can't understand why answering the question "do you want me to stay?' with "No we're fine," is at all problematic. Most moms want to leave and use the time for themselves. These are 9 year-olds, not toddlers. And if a parent asked me "do you want me to stay," I would interpret that as "I would like to leave, is that OK?" I mean, if you want to stay, say so. "Mind if I stay?" And if you aren't explicit like that, you can't blame the mom for not reading minds.

And why do you put party in quotation mats  -- "party"? You seem to be saying this wasn't a legitimate party. Why? Because your daughter was hot and bored? It wasn't so overwhelmingly hot that they couldn't play outside for less than an hour and a half -- there was shade and water. And if she was bored, thats too bad, but it hardly means it was not a real party.

You sound over protective. Checking to make sure there's sufficient water before leaving your daughter off for less than an hour and a half, wanting to stay, over reacting to her fall.[/quote]
