Our ds is very sporty and surfor xmas as an extra surprise we are getting him tickets for the boxing day football to go with his Dad .

Anyway sister just rang and said I am borrowing D boxing day to take him to ice hockey ,I said you can't and becaused I couldn't tell her 'cos ds was in the room she kicked off in the end I said I can't tell you because it will ruin his surprise so he now knows something is going on .

Then I emailed her and told her the reason why and she has sent a snotty email back saying she will have to send tickets back so she had gone and got the tickets before she even made sure it would be ok .

Now I have wrote it down it dosen't look so bad but she has peed me off already today by ringing ds without speaking to me and telling him she was taking him out next week without checking that we are ok with it .

Have you got the tickets yet? If so you didn't check with her either.

6 of one, half a dozen of another, I think!

Well he doesn't know what he's doing so it will still be a suprise.

I would be peed off too - why would she arrange a day out on Boxing Day of all days without checking you aren't already doing anything?

oh I thought by D you meant your Dad for some reason. Sorry.

Anyway....your all loons.

{hmm] Why should I check with her to see if I can buy my own son tickets to a football match?

I had no idea she was planning to take him anywhere boxing day until 5 mins ago .

Yes I know I said about the surprise but it was a very stressful call I was trying to feed dd and talk to dsis and she is very overbearing I am pissed off with myself too now .

She does not have children and is a pita with my dc at times plays favourites and takes over with them ,she is also one of those types who knows everything about having a child despite never having had one herself .

Practice hanging up on her until she has calmed down and you have thought of what to say! YANBU
