Not quite parenting but didn't know where else to put!!!
My neighbours do my head in!! Every single time I open the back door, they open theirs within about 30 seconds. They are really nice people, but they want a chat every single time they see us outside and it can go on for half hour at a time.
Also, every single time they see me outside with the kids, the Mum comes out and says "oh you don't mind if she comes over do you (her 3 year old). I have 2 kids (aged 1&3), so it's not like it's a piece of piss to look after those 2 let alone having another one. I said yes almost every time because I felt like I had to, then last time I was a bit snappy and said "only for 5 minutes because I've just finished work". She looked really taken aback but was calling her back after 5 mins.
I just don't get it, I think it's really rude to keep trying to shove her child on me. Why can't I go in my own garden in peace?? Aaarg
