To think this mum is a cheeky fucker

257 replies

LolaTheDarkdestroyer · 26/08/2017 22:47

My dd (8) stayed at a friends last night. I nipped round there in the day to drop some clothes off as she needed shorts, while I was there my dd asked if 'they' meaning the girl and her two sisters could stop at ours tommorrow (meaning today) I said oh I'm not sure yet it's school Tuesday and we have a lot to get sorted,plus dad is working tommorrow and left it at that.

Today comes I don't hear anything off the mum all day. I went out to walk the dog came home and she had left all 3 girls 6,7 and 9 at my house with all their stuff! Dp was busy in the garden and told the mum I would be home any minute and to wait as he didn't know what was going on, she said oh I'll leave them here with you and fucked off.

I got back to 3 bags of overnight stuff on the hallway and 3 girls that were here for a bloody sleepover wtaf not once had I said they were stopping or confirmed anything with the mum, I got a Facebook message an hour later saying she would pick them up at 2 tommorrow!

Now I wouldn't have minded if it had been one of the girls fair enough I would have said fine, but why the fuck would you drop all your kids off to my house leave them with my dp who you don't know for shit and not even check with me?

I have 7 kids myself including a 2 year old and a 5 month old so now have 10 kids in my house, where is the common sense?
Surely when my dd asked if they could sleep the mum should have said well not all of you as it's a bit much.especially a 6 year old who darent even go to the loo on her own. None of these kids have ever been to my house before either.

They all went to the park earlier and I answered a phonecall off the mum to one of the girls I said I'll get her to ca you back, she said "oh it's alright I'm going out" so basically I'm babysitting 3 kids for her while she fucks off out on the piss.

Yes I should have told her to come pick them up as I had t agreed to a sleepover but I felt bad for them...the mum shouldn't have left them here in the first place though aibu to think she is a cheeky fucking bitch?

7 kids?????? Good god.

RebootYourEngine · 27/08/2017 05:08

Hope you got them all to sleep. If not i would be dropping them off now.

What is it with Cheeky Fuckers.

LagunaBubbles · 27/08/2017 05:22

I to don't particularly like confrontation but there's no way I would just put up with this, and I will never understand people who do and then complain about the other person.. They do it because they get away with it!

bloodymaria · 27/08/2017 06:44

It's almost unbelievable!

PennyTentiary · 27/08/2017 07:32

I'd be getting their stuff together and dropping them off as soon as they wake up if possible. Or keep calling her til she comes to pick them up. Over and over.
She sounds like a bad mum if she will just leave them anywhere and leave them with your dp who she doesn't know. She's also a bad person as she has no consideration for you or the fact that you have loads of kids. Even just the 5 month old would have been enough.
But then why would she change her behaviour? She probably thinks it's acceptable if no one has called her out on it.

GirlInterruptedOftenByKids · 27/08/2017 07:58

Morning OP! Are the kids still there?

Berthatydfil · 27/08/2017 09:33

I'm betting she was out to watch the big fight - hence the 2pm proposed pick up.
It's half nine now I hope you have the kids up dressed and fed with haribo and fruit shoots and ready to go home.

Are they staying until 2m??

Nquartz · 27/08/2017 10:23

2pm obvs

Fairenuff · 27/08/2017 10:28

Sounds like it was all fine for you after all then OP. No harm done. The children are all happy and so are you so it turned out ok. I expect the friend, knowing that you're so laid back and cool, made the right call after all.

CockPisssPartridge · 27/08/2017 10:31

So not only did she get a free night, she wants you to feed them breakfast and lunch too?? Wow.

CockPisssPartridge · 27/08/2017 10:41

You're not the first person she has done this too and you won't be the last. She'll just try someone else. There's a Mum at the school who's known for this, I always wonder why she doesn't realise that people only ever have her kids once and never offer again.
My friend had the woman's son once. Cheeky Fucker Mum said she'd collect him at 5pm.
5pm comes and goes. My friend rang and rang and she finally turned up gone 10pm. She's tried to palm them off on me before. No fucking way. I pretend I can't even see her now if she's in my line of vision.

GodlessDomestic1 · 27/08/2017 10:43

Can she??? You know where she lives? Message and say 'you will drop off at 11am'. You really should have done this last night and told her you'd drop off at 9:30. I cannot believe you've allowed this to happen!

honeysucklejasmine · 27/08/2017 10:44

Who are these people who think it's ok to dump their kids on random people? Poor kids.

thatdearoctopus · 27/08/2017 10:47

You said she'd phoned to speak to one of the children? Why on earth didn't you tell her then that you hadn't agreed to this and that a 2pm pick-up is not on? You do realise she won't pick up at 2, don't you? She'll be late.

MsHarry · 27/08/2017 10:49

Sadly not surprised as I have come into contact with lots of mums like this. 6/7 is a bit young to be having sleepovers imo. I used to hate it when my DDs would ask things like that in front of their friends. After they did it twice I made it a strict rule that if they did it again the answer would always be no. That sorted it.
