[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think a little annoyance is understandable, and I would have checked with my spouse. I also think two 20 minute drives a day for a week is an incredibly small commitment on a day when you're not working. I wouldn't think twice about that. It's the length of a long movie and not worth having emotions about. Most people's time is not "their own." Either you're working and it belongs to your boss or you've got household obligation and[b] it belongs to the household[/b].[/quote] Ugh. Not a fan of this. Household duties do not include doing favors for the husbands coworkers. He looks like the savior at her expense. SAHM here and I am home to take care of MY kids [/quote] I see this more as a favor to my own 15 year old -- I assume they are paying her and she wants the job and is not just doing it because DH pushed her into it. If not, my 14 year old will take it and I work and would still figure out how to get her there! :lol: [/quote] This. Also you make it sound like 20 minutes away is the equivalent to taking DD to the moon. It’s an hour and a half out of your day for a week. You don’t need to hang out for 2 hours waiting. Wtf. Drama. Also, it’s for your daughter not your husband. Get over it. You probably took longer writing and responding to this thread.[/quote] +1 I don’t really see what this even has to do with the husband. It is for the 15 year old. If you don’t have anything else planned, I really don’t see what the big deal is. In most locations, 15 year olds need parent help with transportation (unless you want them sitting at home all day). Just part of the parenting job at this age. [/quote]
