[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just let it go. Did she describe what her volunteer obligation was? What if it is to help someone who is in a much more dire situation than you? Then there are the moms who won't help anyway. My mom is one of those. I wouldn't dream of asking her to come in a situation like yours, because 1) she wouldn't want to come in the first place, and 2) if I said something, she'd come, but be resentful the entire time. I'm betting your mom isn't one of these types. Feel lucky that you have a mom that cares enough to come later, and find someone else to help in the time that she can't.[/quote] +1 This is my mother as well. Maybe be glad you know in advance you can't count on her. The alternative is worse. My mother agreed to help then said she had a doctor's appointment and never came back. This was during a time we were between childcare and it was extremely difficult. I have never trusted her since.[/quote]
