Wanting to be told if my kids are somewhere

Hello all so long story short my daughter got sick Thursday and she missed school today because she was still under the weather. Also today my other daughter had a school trip I was to help chaperone. I asked my brother if he could watch my daughter since she couldn't go to school and he agreed and I'm thankful. But now I hear my daughter ended up leaving to go with my sister. I called constantly to check on her while on the school trip and no one told me anything. Aibu for being upset about this? Anything could have happened and I was not aware that she even left from being with my sister. My daughter is still in a booster and the whole time she was out she was not in her booster. My family knows I'm really big on my babies safety. This makes me so uncomfortable.

@AliceOlive I hope you're having a good day. I didn't think this question would turn into a scratch match. I really do appreciate your input. And I hope you enjoy your weekend.

Bye all❤️❤️

It happens here! Someone picks a minor detail and harps on it for pages. You can see that reasonable people wouldn’t do what your siblings did though. Only people who think car seats are optional and can’t comprehend photo waivers.

Also, I’ve noticed a large increase in first posts from people outside the U.K. I’m curious as to why people from other countries post on a U.K. based forum. I know, obviously, that the internet is world wide and there is nothing stopping anyone from any country but I would have thought that a lot of the information and advice would be U.K. centric.

Yep me too. Most of the threads end up getting deleted. Says a lot.....

Topofthemountain · 04/05/2024 16:59

So what is the law surrounding car seats in the country in which you live?

Did your brother reply to your 'constant texts'?, that in actual fact weren't constant. (Frequent would be a better word)

Funny that. Often first time posters, like the op.

Stalking the OP? Perhaps she name changed?

It’s not an outrageous question. Why haven’t you bothered to answer it?

You don’t exactly have a long term history here, either.

Was there a suggestion that all posters from outside the UK are in fact the op?!
What on earth are you on about?

No. That some people turn up here making stuff up and get deleted. Often those people are from outside the U.K.

Are you actually talking to yourself?

She was responding to me. Are you ok? You sound completely muddled.

Topofthemountain · 04/05/2024 17:09

I don't think it is house who is the one talking to them self.

OutOfTheHouse · 04/05/2024 17:10

AliceOlive · 04/05/2024 17:06

No, check out the post I quoted.

If I was sock puppeting I might get confused and start responding in the wrong name or talking to myself though…..

ThinWomansBrain · 04/05/2024 17:11

why didn't you step down from the school trip?
can't have been too much help if you were constantly on your phone

MermaidEyes · 04/05/2024 17:12

Think there's some sock puppeting going off on this thread ....

Shall we report the thread and have them check? 😂

Your posts are making zero sense to me now. 🤷‍♀️

All posters outside the UK are the OP? Wha?

AliceOlive · 04/05/2024 17:41

At least OP got some on topic confirmation of her position.

StarlightLime · 04/05/2024 17:42

Are you alright, @AliceOlive ? Your posts are so peculiar.
