Ok so she sent me a few more messages about how they just assumed I knew what they needed and didn't think they needed to spell it out for me! Saying that they do not know how they are expected to pay for childcare that they hadn't budgeted for as they was relying on me to provide it. And I shouldn't of said I could help if I wasn't willing to do so.

I've not replied to any messages

Or you could do the full on passive aggressive "I am quite shocked at how you cannot see how unreasonable this is. That suggests to me that you are not seeing things straight. Are you .... you know.....ok?" with full on head tilt.

Do NOT agree to anything OP ! I think that she only wanted to come round and discuss face to face as she probably thinks she can manipulate you into doing at least some of the days

STAY STRONG Grin

Moustache wins the thread with the popcorn. I hope you've got enough for everyone (preferably about, ooh, six weeks supply ...)

cafetea · 03/07/2017 20:34

let's all focus good vibes - staying strong, saying no to the childcare, showing her the door and closing it
