Hi, neighbours over the road have become good friends of ours and dd is best friends with their dd, primary school age but different years ( 1 and 3 )
Me and the other mum were both walking to and from school each day and then realised that it would be easier if she took the girls of a morning and I picked them up.
so dd got her report recently, she had quite a few lates.
Turns out that neighbour drops her dd at the juniors playground first which is the opposite side to dd's playground.
Also when I pick them up i sometimes take dd to craft and other parents will message me saying to being their dd home.
I have caring responsibilities so often don't get the chance to pop to the shops before pick up and will get the girls a drink or a small treat.
Other child will always ask me to buy for her younger sister too which i think is cheeky as she's not there and they have never bought my dd anything on the odd occasions where we have swooped.
I now feel that rather than having them dictate to me i would rather take dd myself and pick her up.
Will also help me with my own routine as
I will be up and out rather than being in my pj's until late morning when i have my shower.
How do I bring this up without us falling out?
other mum has substance issues and often has a sleep of an afternoon and a lot of this I did not know when we agreed to do it however i feel that their dd is not my responsibility.
sorry it's long and thanks for reading
