Was running 10 minutes late past school pick up time and rang my friend to ask if it would be okay
If my dc could stop at her house til I got there to collect him from her house. She said no,she was going out and couldn't, fair enough.
Anyway I got to the school and no sign if him, I got held up at a hospital appointment that over ran when it shouldn't of as it was at 1.50 pm so plenty of time I thought to get back.
I got a call a disgruntled call from my friend to say that dc had turned up at her house.
Turns out that her husband opened the door and wouldn't let my dc in as he thought that I had sent my dc round there and then her husband said that my friend was out. But my dc heard her from the kitchen talking.
My dc asked if he could get her to ring me and tell me that he was there.
I know that I was in the wrong for not being there on time , but I would never do that to a child who had the good sense to go to a friend for help in this situation.

So OP is happy to come and moan about being corrected for her grammar, but doesn't answer the key questions about all the holes in her story...

Sorry, OP, not read all of thread but who do you have down as emergency contact for the school? If it's friend, yanbu, if t isn't friend, you are.

musicismylife · 06/09/2013 23:55

If your friend's children were at after-school club, friend was most likely naked (which is why your child was told she was out) sprawled on table, waiting for hubby and then your child rocks up (even though he had been told not to) and puts a dampener on their five minutes of passion.

I'd be fuming.

usualsuspect · 07/09/2013 00:02

He wasn't told not to.

HappyYoni · 07/09/2013 00:07

Blimey and I thought the bullying thread got heated!

HaroldLloyd · 07/09/2013 00:13

Music your life sounds more exciting than mine, I'd probably be taking the chance to clean the toilet.

I was just having a pee and a giant black beetle took a run at me!

Wrong thread! Sorry! Blush

AlexReidsLonelyBraincell · 07/09/2013 05:49

Thanks for the pm Cushtie you're a proper charmer aren't you?

Address your 'problem' with me on the thread or not at all, bitchy, sly, malicious digs via the pm system make you look even worse.
Your advice was neither "sympathetic" nor "understanding" especially when juxtaposed with your hasty attempt to shred the op's grammar.

I see others have received similar, I think maybe you need to examine your own behaviour in the context of this thread.

Sorry MNHQ, just defending myself from a personal attack.

AlexReidsLonelyBraincell · 07/09/2013 05:51

LinghamStyle that did make me laugh, if it had happened to me, I'd have died. Died I tell you. Grin

Listentomum · 07/09/2013 06:53
