to think that is DS invites his mate over to play I shouldnt have to entertain his siblings too

[stoppinattwo]

Im farking sick of parents who see an opportunity to off load their friggin kids on me!!!!!!!

YANBU

I'd be crossing them off the list of children to ask back for tea

tis rude.my eldest are a year apart but i wouldnt dream of sending both to ones friend(iyswim).

Unless your DC is mates with both of them, or you have offered it is frankly a bizarre thing to do.

(Although I am at home at moment counting down the mins until my DDs 'playdate' is over. She has whined about every single thing so far so I am hiding a bit in the hope that they will finally 'click' together.' Shhhhh!

the trouble is they are next door neighbours and they just wnader round....I keep my other kids from going to thiers because i think they havent been invited so they shouldnt just turn up.......arrgghhhh....he is sitting ther like little lord farking fontleroy (spelling!!) WITH the remote!!!!.....DS and his mate are playing elsewhere in the house...he isnt even playing with them!!!!

My two come as a pair and so do the kids across the way, it works out well for us. Although I do get narked sometimes as they are more in here than mine are across the road. Yesterday day we had them from 10.30 until about 4 and that was only because my ds had a dr's appointment and we had to chuck them out!

Am I just a free childminder???

fimBOW....If he wasnt such a whining little chap it probably wouldnt be so bad

in the words of Katherine Tate "farking Liberty"

My neighbours kids were scrapping yesterday and I had to keep breaking it up. Know where you are coming from....

Turn the TV off. If has come round to play then he should be playing.

I have just put the programme on that DD was watching and taken the remote away......>........ooooh Im soooooo childish.....!!

My friends mum used to offer to have my sister for a bit after school, because she saw it as helping my mum. But then she'd go home and we'd play longer.

I think the point is if you mind you shouldnt have to put up with it.

Where I lived before, my daughter used to play with a brother and sister in the same road; they were always in and out of each other's houses, and I loved it. Mind you, I did really like the kids and they had better manners than my horror! . Where we now live, a mum in the road has 4 DDs - triplets and an older sis , and one or more of them frequently drop in and vice versa. Ditto the lad next door.

If you'd rather they weren't there, make things a bit less pleasant - 'I'm afraid we're not having the tv on at the moment', 'no, there aren't any biscuits (or whatever) left'. Maybe that'll encourage them back home. They're coming over all time because your house is more fun than theirs - make it less so and they'll be off!

Just read that back and want to add that I like it when the triplets come round (it didn't sound that way!) - just not all at once
