To think this mum is a cheeky fucker

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?

oh yes and there will be nobody in if OP takes the kids back now. Bet you anything.

flumpybear · 27/08/2017 11:36

Message her again - tell her she's a poor excuse for a parent and get her arse over and collect her 'loved ones' and stop lumbering everyone else with her fucking responsibilities - cheeky bloody moo

Earlyriser84 · 27/08/2017 11:38

Has she not even been in contact to ask how her children are ?

It beggars belief how some people are so nonchalant about palming their children off on others.

As a PP put , write a post on her FB page telling her she can't get hold of her and ask if anyone knows where she is as you have to give her back HER children Grin

flumpybear · 27/08/2017 11:41

Good plan early riser out the cow on FB - in fact throw in the bit about not agreed in the first place just so everyone knows and she doesn't spin a tale to friends to make it your fault in her strange fucked up entitled mind!!

LolaTheDarkdestroyer · 27/08/2017 11:41

I'm debating just sending them home..and no I literally haven't got anything in for lunch I bought stuff to last for my own kids plus do packed lunches for Tuesday. I bet the 2pm is for lie in and so the lazy bitch hasn't got to do them lunch.

OP posts:
LolaTheDarkdestroyer · 27/08/2017 11:43

And no contact! Since the call at 7...last night.

LolaTheDarkdestroyer · 27/08/2017 11:43

And that was to her daughter not me.

Don't debate it. Just do it.

Prusik · 27/08/2017 11:47

I really can't believe some people!

Jaxhog · 27/08/2017 11:51

Their mother is beyond rude is doing this.

VM and Text the mother that you are bringing them home, and that if she isn't there you will leave them on the doorstep. Then take them home.

If she isn't there, you may have to wait until she is. Unless she's a REALLY bad mother, she will come home.

LetsSplashMummy · 27/08/2017 11:51

I don't think you were at all clear considering the plan Chinese Whispered through kids keen to have a sleepover. You said you weren't sure and DP might be working, so not completely ridiculous to find him home and think it must be ok then. I can see your vague answer being heard by the kids as "if dad isn't working.... ok"

I don't think she's right, but don't think you really should go Guns blazing as more communication problem than cheekiness.

MarmaladeIsMyJam · 27/08/2017 11:55

Fuck me TAKE THEM BACK HOME

Why are you dithering and sending messages?

Beadieeye · 27/08/2017 11:56

Some people are being harsh here. Who can say how they would have reacted in your shoes? I think I'd have been in too much shock/felt too awkward/felt bad for the girls to just outright bundle them in a car and drop them back off at their own house.
No normal person would just dump all of their kids with a man they've never met in a house they've never been to, uninvited then fuck off on the razzle dazzle. What if there was a problem, she would've been too drunk or unavailable to deal with it!
I'd have had to say I would expect them to be picked up first thing in the morning, if she didn't turn up then I'd have driven over there myself, if she wasn't in then it's a call to social services.

elfies · 27/08/2017 11:57

When the kids are collected , just tell her all your bairns will be round next weekend ,as you're going out . Add what a wonderful idea exchange babysitting is and you owe her one for suggesting it.

LolaTheDarkdestroyer · 27/08/2017 11:58

The woman is a dinner lady at the school as well would have thought there be more sense there!

BackieJerkhart · 27/08/2017 12:01

Just send them home. There's no debate tonne had. And then book yourself onto an assertiveness course. Grin

BringMeSunshinePlease · 27/08/2017 12:04

Perhaps she sees it as she looked after your daughter and you're returning the favour?

FluffyPineapple · 27/08/2017 12:04

Have you handed them back to their mother yet? They will be wanting their dinner anytime now...

I'm sure devoted mother has a lovely Sunday roast waiting for them 🤔

Janus · 27/08/2017 12:05

Take them home as she may actually be staying out somewhere so you have to check they get in. Just turn up and say you already have 9 people to feed for lunch and can't make it stretch any more. She is unbelievable.

Fairenuff · 27/08/2017 12:16

I don't think she's a real cheeky fucker like some of the others, I think OP is just trying to get in on the cheeky fucker action and the drama of the thread Grin

In reality, the children asked to stay and you said 'maybe'.

Your dh didn't say no when she said she would leave the children with him.

You didn't return the children.

I can see why she thinks everything is ok and is having a nice day to herself.

glitterlips1 · 27/08/2017 12:21

Take them home! Why are you still on here talking about it! I don't understand some people.

VinoTime · 27/08/2017 12:22

I had a mum from DD's school randomly show up at my house with her two children during the holidays (DD's friend and her feral DS). She attempted to force them through my door, along with toys and snacks for the day, because she couldn't 'cope' with them and needed a few hours peace to get the housework done Hmm

I'd heard stories from some of the other mums about her doing this to them in the past, and almost hadn't believed them! Unfortunately for her my brain-to-mouth filter wasn't working very well that day, and I promptly burst out laughing, shuffled the kids straight back to her and said 'good one!' When her ensuing guilt trip into taking them failed, she got really angry and stormed away with them. She hasn't spoken to me since. Bliss! Grin

The cheeky fuckers are everywhere! Their reach is far!

Notreallyarsed · 27/08/2017 12:25

I'm always stunned when people find themselves in a situation because someone is a cheeky cunt and they haven't said anything.

Take them home, tell her she took the piss spectacularly and you won't be having them again.

And before anyone starts, yes I do tell people no when it doesn't suit me/my kids. I've had bad experiences before and I'm not getting lumbered with someone else's kids because they can't be arsed. I don't palm my kids off, I'm not being the one dumped with other people's kids.

Timetogrowup2016 · 27/08/2017 12:26

Oh ffs.
Wtaf have I just read.
Why the fuck did you allow this happen 🤔😳😂
