We agreed to pay the majority for dsds school uniform in July. Absolutely no problem with this. We have 3 other children's uniform to also buy.
Bearing in mind that this is playgroup that the child will attend only 2 days a week but needs to wear uniform.
Partner had a phone call from dsds mother this morning saying we owe her £100 for her uniform. She's only gone and bought everything from the expensive shops for 2 days a week at play group.
Now when we agreed to pay in July, we offered to take dsd and get what she needed. We were told no. We were also told her that we cannot afford much and she had to budget it. My children's school clothes/shoes etc are from ASDA. I got the majority of the uniform for £80 for BOTH of my children. We paid £50 to partners other child and we know that covered most of it. We can't afford the John Lewis/Debenhams uniforms.
So basically she's gone and done the opposite of what we asked of her and also claims she doesn't want her child dressed in 'shitty George clothing'
We were expecting about £40. Dsd does need a proper uniform but like I say, it's 2 days a week.
What would you do? We can't afford £100 and she knows that
