Dd is 11, has done contemporary dance lessons one evening a week for a few years.
She decided now she is at high school she no longer wants to go, which is fine. She has other things that interest her more.
We have to give notice which I have done, which means we have paid until half term. This is also fine, she only decided to stop once she had gone back to school.
She doesn’t want to go to the paid-for lessons and I’m not going to force her as she’s stopping anyway, plus it means I don’t have to sit outside and wait for her for an hour when I can be at home and doing other things.
Her friend also goes to the lessons, I would bring her home after which I didn’t mind doing as she had younger siblings and it clashed with their dinner and bath time. Her mum is now cross with me because she’s going to have to sort out getting her own child home. I did tell her last week that dd was stopping. Apparently I should ‘make her go’ to the end of term. The friend is also stopping at half term, I suspect because of the lifts not being available rather than actually wanting to stop.
Aibu for not forcing my dd to go to the activity just because the other mum wants a lift back for her child? She’s been on about it every time I’ve seen her this week.
