My friend's son has dance rehearsal this weekend.
But she has a driving lesson so can't go. She asked me a few days ago if I would mind taking him, and I said it's too early and I'n not feeling too well. Have a cold coming on, and period all at the same time! (This is the truth, I'm feeling lousy.)
Yesterday she said she has asked another friend to help but the other friend told her to cancel her driving lesson. She was outraged that her friend would suggest that. (I kind of agree with the friend). Now to prove to her friend that she has other people who can help her, she has asked me to take her son. I have a really bad cold. My son is 3 years old and its 3 hours of hanging about and a lot of hassle for me as it starts at 9am! I've been before to help out because she wanted moral support, but this time I just want to stay in bed. I don't want to go, but now feel guilty and feel sorry for her ds. Also, her dh will be in bed and is in the house but she doesn't want to ask him. (???!!!)
AIBU to think she should cancel her lesson (or get her dh to take ds) rather than ask friend to go quite a bit out of their way to take her son?
