[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did you ever ask your daughter if she wanted a ride home from Aunt? It seems like you're answering for her without having asked if she would like that.[/quote]

Irrelevant. The issue isn’t whether DD wanted a ride (she didn’t), it’s that SIL ignored me when I told her to not go to DD’s school. If I had answered for DD the situation would still be the same. [/quote]

You don't know she didn't when not even asked. You know OP didn't ask. [/quote]

Sorry that was me (OP). Daughter didn’t want a ride. I did ask. [/quote]

Then say that. Because you weren't very clear. She doesn't want Aunt to pick her up, not all the other nonsense about wanting to walk home alone. I'd much rather my daughter have a ride than walk home alone when she has other options, but you do you.[/quote]
DP, she is not your daughter and if her parents are ok with her walking home alone then it’s not up to you.[/quote]

Cool, but OP is the one asking advice so she's going to get advice.[/quote]

NP. You didn't give advice - you stated your opinion of whether OP should have wanted SIL to pick her daughter up - again that's not advice. Who cares what you think of the decision - OP didn't ask that of the post - she's confident in her own parenting choices.[/quote]

Confident? Hardly. And everyone is stating their opinion/advice on the entire issue. It's all the same. OP asked and people answered. That you don't like the advice is completely irrelevant and derailing.[/quote]

This is OP. I asked for specific advice on how to handle my SIL, not about whether or not I should let my daughter walk home alone. Your advice was off topic. [/quote]

I gave you my advice including what I would do with my daughter. You put it all out there, so you get what you get.[/quote]

No one needed you to include what you would do with your daughter. You only “get what you get” with a$$holes like yourself. Everyone else gave helpful (and relevant) advice. You shoved your nose where it doesn’t belong. And are pissed that you got called out by multiple posters. Yet you continue to dig your heels in. Let it go. You’re making yourself look worse with every subsequent post.

Don’t quit your day job to be a hall monitor. [/quote]

Foster another identity besides “Fun Aunt,” it’s clearly not working for you, which is why you are so defensive. We get that you don’t like that people see your controlling, disrespectful, steamrolling ways, and we’re not putting up with types like you anymore. Grow up. -NP[/quote]
