Hi all! Not sure what the point of this post is really but just went to vent.
Dh took dc to his mum and dads a couple days ago. They have 2 large dogs. We've been over there before and there's been dog poo all over their small garden they haven't picked up. So much so dh has done a it before. In laws are very able and capable to do it. They have grown up children at home who could do it too.
When they got home, I asked Dd if she had a good time. She did but said she wasn't allowed outside as no one picked any poo up and there was lots of it. I am glad she wasn't allowed on the grass obviously. I spoke to dh who said that it was true what she said. So Dd wasn't exaggerating. I am not sure why he didn't offer to do it, but it's not really his job to do so.
But aibu to be really bleddy annoyed? The visit was planned for a good week. So they knew they were coming. Surely they would pick it up first? There's 4 very capable adults in the house. Drives me mad.
The kids were stuck on the patio and park area which is quite small playing metres away from loads of dog poo.
We have a dog, we check the garden multiple times a day when the kids go out to play.
Aibu to think it's just pure laziness?
It generally puts me off letting them play on the grass even when it is picked up because little bits may remain.
They barely ever cut the grass either. I just get really annoyed. I couldn't have visitors over without picking it all up first. Think it's vile.
