Parents in general, who are on their phone all the time and not giving attention to their child.
BT why you lie? And when they don't move when they're clearly in your way.
special shoutout to people who do this in the middle of the aisle in supermarkets!
Even worse at the shop doorway
Yeah that is irritating. I'm silently standing there thinking 'budge. Have you no awareness?'
ugh, can you literally get any more patronising?
I've just bought some remote control plugs so I don’t have to get up to turn the lamp off
Well exactly...a ball game and a few crafts doesn't cut it for me.
If you don't need the holiday club then tell her you have it covered and invite the friend for tea one night? Don't spend money to suit her agenda.
. So maybe don't do that !Some people are so oblivious aren't they. £25 a day! I'd have been tempted to 'reassure' her that her darling popsicle wouldn't be alone, she will literally be with lots of other children and the opportunity to make new friends should be seen as a positive.It's the start of the school holidays and it's already started...
The messages from school mum's.
For context - Child's best friend is doing a holiday club.
"Just a thought...my little popsicle is doing xyz holiday club and I wondered if your little bubbles would like to join them. Keep each other company. I thought it would be nice.
It *only* costs £25 per day. Bring a packed lunch. Let me know how that sounds"
In other words, you want me to spend £25 per day so that your little popsicle isn't by themselves and now I've got to find an excuse 1. My child can't lie and 2. I don't want to look a cheapskate AGAIN
I know...that's the thing! Whatever you say, ends up creating another issue. And creating a rod for your own back. I've been down this road before with my teens.If you don't need the holiday club then tell her you have it covered and invite the friend for tea one night? Don't spend money to suit her agenda.
Of course when I said this fellow mum said 'Oh then you could have X one day for me'
