Background is DS started beavers early last year and I offered to take and collect DS's friend and classmate as at that time his mother was at work on that evening and his dad would have had to take his younger DD along with him to take/collect and collect time was after her bedtime.
On the whole its been no problem (we virtually go past their house on route anyway) but it can be a nuisance as my DH has often been still at work and so I've had to take my DD with us (who is same age as DS's friend's DD), also DS's friend often runs off and is difficult to get to leave beavers sometimes, etc.
So was quite pleased when realised DS's friend will be going up to Cubs in September (DS won't do until Jan) as I thought it would break the weekly obligation and then maybe we could do it as more of a shared thing when DS goes up.
But just heard from the Beavers leader that DS's friends mother has told her that she doesn't want her DS to go up to Cubs until mine does "because KamR takes him". Cubs is on a different night from Beavers and she hasn't asked me whether it would be convenient for me.
Just read that and realise how very petty I sound. I think I'm just feeling that everyone sees me as a boring SAHM who is always available to do stuff...
