Ending a friendship

In the past I have had friendships that have faded out and that's fine. After a pisstake childcare event a few days ago (made it clear to both parents that I was wiped out and could they please cut their time out from 7 hrs to 5. Ended up with them ignoring that so had kid way longer than I could really cope with), I'm kind of done with this lot.

Not a major event, but last in long line of similar things.

I have so much on my plate in the way of major life events at the moment, I'm tempted to block them but that feels off really.

Wwyd?

Hi. If this is more than a one-off occurrence and the parents didn't apologise or acknowledge your 'request', accept that this is another example of being taken for granted and your own needs not being respected. Say No next time they expect you to do their bidding. Hope your personal life improves and someone looks after you now,

you said it already, you are done with them.
wrap it up
they don't give a shit about you, why should you care? they are not your friends so good riddance to bad rubbish

If they are CFs, you won’t need to block them. Just keep saying no to their demands and they won’t be back in touch with you.
