The other mom already hanged up the phone once you said you're not going to meet her at house or 10 pm at closer location, after offering to return it that night.

OP didn't offer, the other mother demanded it. After a brief conversation OP realized she could not do it so backed out. Sometimes it takes a few minutes to realize that someone you're trying to compromise with cannot compromise.

Okay, you're being creepy.

It was a joke.

15:49 here-I didn't post this but this was the party I was thinking of as well! Small world, my friend!

Haha. I am not your friend, and the world is not as small as you think it is. I literally picked a random letter and a random neighborhood and posted to stir things up and see if anyone would actually believe me...because I have no life and am dealing with a sick child who's keeping me confined to the house.

(Unless you were joking too, in which case, I like you )

Why is a 10 year old in 1/2 grade?

He's not 10, just big.

Two 7 year olds get their suits mixed up. It easily could have been beach mom's child, not OP. No one really knows what happened but its not reasonable to ask someone to drive at 10 PM. Earlier, sure, but 10 PM, no.

If she's irritating and entitled, does that make her wrong not to drive an hour or more at 10 pm?

If it's her, she wouldn't drive 15 minutes at noon. She's an ass.

You really seem to bear a grudge against this woman? You dear one need to get a life and stop cyber bullying this Mom (an older Mom with older kids who is so glad not to be in this scene). Try to be kinder, life is too short to be so judgmental.

Seriously. And these are the very same moms who say Bethesda has a bad rep. "Nuh-uh, we are not bitches. Everyone I know is nice. If you can't find any nice people to be friends with in Bethesda, it must be you."

Awful people.

I agree that it's silly, but no need for hyperbole. A classmate's home is not an unsafe and mysterious location.

No, not the house. The driving.

Lol! I think most of the pro posts are OP!
