AIBU to think my friend who has been out with a man twice, should not let him look after her children (12 & 14) for the day? He has offered to...

If they were 2 and 4 then probably not but at that age they don't need looking after do they?

What is the circumstance to this happening?

YANBU. She sounds naive at best. Very odd - have you told her you think it's unwise?

Why do the DC need looking after?

Toodlepip14 · 04/07/2018 20:40

Another friend has. She has laughed about it, she hasn't actually agreed to it. But I think it's very odd he even offered

Yanbu. The offering to babysit teenagers who don't need babysitting when he's been out with their mother twice is a MASSIVE red flag.

What smashed said.

I wouldn't leave anyone I'd met twice with my kids....unless it was a nursery setting or a child minder.

He offered?!! Mmmmmmm! I wouldn’t risk it personally.
