[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a SAHM of one, and I’m so tired of people assuming it’s no big deal for me to schlep their kids around town for them. Stop assuming we don’t have anything going on and it’s just so fun for us to bring your kid home or take them to dance class for you, just because we don’t work or don’t have as many kids as you. I’m this close to finishing off the year by asking each and every one of these moms to be my kid’s personal chauffeur, because what’s one more? Did I mention they are never really appreciative and downright offended when you decline? So done. [/quote]

Oh stop. Being a SAHM has nothing to do with it. I work Full-Time but am always one of the go to volunteers in the school, sports, etc. Because I'm always there, people also ask me to "schlep their kids around town for them."

And you know what? I generally do it. Because I am there all the time. What's the big deal? When I ask for reciprocation, it's almost never declined.

If you don't want to do it, then just say no. But, stop being a martyr about it. Try being kind and realize you may need help at some point.[/quote]
