I don't want to drip feed so will try to include everything. My son has started reception this year at the local school around 5 minutes walk away. I have a 2.5 year old and I'm pregnant due May 10th! On the odd time I have took my neighbours son to school with me when she had an emergency or she was feeding her baby. Yesterday morning she dropped into conversation that they cannot keep affording to send their 12 year old to school via taxi anymore and as he has anxiety he cannot go by bus so will be needing to drive her to school and can I permanently take her younger son to school and in the afternoons pick him up and bring him home with me till 5pm ish as she needs to collect baby from childminder and it's becoming too tight. (She is stopping after school wrap around care as it is too expensive) When I mentioned I will be saddled with a newborn next month her response was "well you would still be doing it anyway so what's an extra child" and I just was so shocked I didn't reply and my toddler started crying so I said my goodbyes. How do I deal with this without making it extremely awkward for the rest of our lives. As these homes are both our "forever homes"

@LoisLane66 what comment exactly? Don’t think relaying my experience of living in a place is wrong but feel free to report what you like 👍

Be careful who you slag off. I'm from Liverpool and don't take kindly to reading slurs about my hometown and the population who live there.

That poster needs to 'be careful' best we you 'don't take kindly' to what she said?

Not sure what you're threatening here as it's an anonymous forum so unsure what you'd be able to do that you think they should be careful of.

Be careful or I’ll drop my kids off at your house, maybe. 🤣

I'm not the kind of person who you typify in that particular comment, nor is that attitude prevalent in the majority of people in my hometown.
There are cheeky people in every town and every country but to tar them all with the same brush is wrong.
I suggest you ask for that comment to be removed before I do.
Thank you.

What a bizarre comment, especially after the Thomas Cashman trial and the 'no grass' culture that scared people from coming forward about the murder of a young child.

I'm from London and there's Londoner bashing on every other thread.

@Eatentoomanyroses just relayed an experience, you need to develop a thicker skin.

dew141 · 06/04/2023 12:44

Yes, the reply was far worse than the original comment.

There's lots of stereotyping of people that live in London and the Home Counties but I don't start making threats. Particularly given the irony of it rather proving the point made..

What a muppet lol

3luckystars · 07/04/2023 08:47

nothing to do with your neighbour, but I’m wondering if people can’t see the posts anymore after the first page (on the app) as this is happening a lot lately with the replies.

SlashBeef · 07/04/2023 12:59

Genuinely embarrassed for you @LoisLane66 😄

LoisLane66 · 07/04/2023 13:12

Go ahead, be my guest, because I certainly am not embarrassed to say what I mean, unlike the many shrinking violets on here who hesitate in case they offend someone with whom they have no connection in RL. 😂

Nobody's embarrassed for you because you're not afraid to offend someone..they're embarrassed for you because what you said was totally ridiculous 😂

AliceOlive · 07/04/2023 16:32

I’m more fascinated than embarrassed.

Was it a parody?

Oh dear...🥺 Is that really your best effort?
Do try harder as you're way off target. Nothing you or anyone else can say, could possibly upset my equilibrium. Enjoy your Easter weekend and concentrate on stuffing yourself with the kid's 🍫🥚s 😁
