[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do they have a large enough car/ extra boosters to be able to carpool?[/quote] OP has already said clearly that the two parents prefer NOT to carpool and would rather drive by themselves. OP is the only one that actually wants to carpool.[/quote] She's trying to force other parents to do it her way. She should find someone else to carpool with or give up. [/quote] What if your child insists on hanging out with the same children whose parents never step up? Do you choose your child's friends? Or tell your child they have to go without friends? "You can't see Larla anymore because Larla's parents would rather take a nap (true story) than drive"? For real? [/quote] If larlas.mom is napping all the time that's a sure sign that larlas mom has some mental health problems. You only have a very small window to try to direct your children to hang out with healthy families. Until your influence is gone, your child is best off being directed away from such families. What do you think is going on in a home where mom lays in bed all the time? No supervision , that's what.[/quote] OP here. I have physical health issues I do not (and will not) make public. Nor should I have to. They are no one's business. The other dad is home, and takes naps every day, which I have never seen a man do before. Not that there is anything wrong with that. I am under the distinct impression the wife of the "non-driving to anything having to do with my child's friends" couple strongly resents her husband. Neither are from here. There is extended family in the house. There is a nanny. [b] I would be more than happy to answer any more questions. How do I tell my child that her friends parents suck? [/b] [/quote] OP, you are getting very good advice that you don't want to listen to. I think you really just want to complain, and would no matter who was pulling their weight or not.[/quote]
