Stick the wrong one in the mail and tell them to return your sons.

Not worth the time of day.

Why do so many of you have reading comprehension problems? She didn't have to drive 50 minutes at 10PM.

Right, it was 30 minutes at 10, which is 60 round trip. Even if it were 30 minutes total, that's still late at night.

It's really not but whatever.

This is a parenting site, asshole.

I'm a Mom of 4. You ladies sound pathetic considering 10PM the middle of the night on a Friday.

You think nothing of loading your 4 kids into the car at 10 to drive an hour? I haven't reached that level of zen yet.

I don't believe that for a second. If you were a mother of 4, you would understand.

I think the OP should have got the name of the hotel and mailed the swimsuit to the hotel, overnight.

I would feel so guilty using Uber to have a package delivered.

LOL, it's so funny how extreme the feelings run on this thread.

No, OP didn't ever seem to intend to leave any of her children home alone. But waking a sleeping baby to drive 10 minutes during the day is easier than waking the sleeping baby and the child to drive at 10pm. That's just too late in the day.

The OP needs to come back.

Sleeping baby equals, no way I am going to meet you tonight. You were right OP.

I know I'm late to the party but I read all 24 pages! I am another on Team OP. I get that her kid screwed up, but the bathing suit mom is really asking way too much. If I were leaving on a beach trip and only had one suit for my child, I would put the fear of death into him of not coming home with the correct suit. Then I would have checked immediately on return. I have a 7 year old, too, and with a few reminders, he can be really careful. I also would have that suit labeled. And on the off chance that something did go awry, I just wouldn't rake the other mother over the coals to fix it. Sure, if the parent could bring it by that night, that would be awesome. But otherwise I could probably find 25 bathing suits just by calling a few friends or posting on a neighborhood or school listserv and letting people know we were in a bind because our suit got misplaced at a party. And really, every parent has had to deal with lost or missing stuff, no?
