To not have another play date with them

Sooo friend brings her 2 dc around, I have one dd. They have done nothing but throw all of dd's toys everywhere, friend has mostly been sat on her phone I've told them not to do it an they haven't listened, her 2 dc literally fighting each other, when told off they start kicking doors walls etc. Friend then decides to go to the shop down the road (literally) takes over half an hour while her one dd (3) who is potty trained decides to have a wee in my dd potty bring it into the living room and throw it all over my carpet in a rage over a toy!!!

Friend comes back, her dd is crying as I've told her off, throws her kids in the car says bye and leaves? Nothing said about the wee.

I know all kids are naughty but all ive done is tell them in the hope friend would tell them off properly, they run around saying stuff like dickhead they are 5 and 3, and I don't want my dd 2 repeating it🙉

YANBU and stop being friends with the lady as well

Aquamarine1029 · 31/08/2017 16:43

I would never have them over again. No way.

Ankleswingers · 31/08/2017 16:45

Fuck that.

I wouldn't entertain any of them again.

What kind of 'friend ' does that?

YANBU

MissionItsPossible · 31/08/2017 16:46

They sound delightful. Hmm I'm including her in the 'they' as well.

Willow2017 · 31/08/2017 16:50

I would have asked her if she had forgotten something as she got up first time...namely her kids.

Lazy inconsiderate person, she isnt a proper friend.

Never again, just say NO. (actually You are fucking joking? would work just as well Wink )

I think you know the answer OP. Friends are respectful of your house/belongings/time, this woman is most definitely not.

Aeroflotgirl · 31/08/2017 17:02

Oh my goodness, never have them round again. The friend sounds awful, fancy being on the phone, when your meant to be with a friend, very rude and not very nice.

Augustwashout · 31/08/2017 17:10

incredible isnt it the level some parents allow their dc to behave. I was mortified when one dc jumped for a few moments on friends new sofa and got a PA telling off! Our sofas are old and our living room small are dc jump everywhere, but I was mortified they thought it was ok to jump on someone elses sofa!

Augustwashout · 31/08/2017 17:11

yes whole thing sounds v rude anyway...and not nice for your dc to have their toys thrown like that.

justkeepswimmingg · 31/08/2017 17:11

Wow, she isn't a friend. Sounds like she uses 'playdates' as an excuse to not parent, and have time to herself. Definitely don't invite them for playdates again, YANBU.

BarbarianMum · 31/08/2017 17:12

YABVU to have to even ask.

Gemini69 · 31/08/2017 17:21

it's called.. 'Taking the Piss' playdates...

stop them NOW for your own sanity Flowers

Whereismumhiding2 · 31/08/2017 17:21

YANBU to say you'll meet somewhere (out of house, maybe a park?) instead next time. Then you can leave early if hers are being unsupervised terrortots. She let them damage your home whilst she was there and literally dumped her 2DC on you for 1/2 hour whilst she went to shop despite their behaviour being rough that day. I'm sure she was having a bad day but sounds like she didn't care that she gave you a bad day without caring.
We all learn quickly whose DCs we want as playdates at our house and who not.

witchofzog · 31/08/2017 17:23

The Apple probably doesn't fall far from the tree. At that age they have picked it up at home. I would not be able to be friends with someone who disrespected my home like that
