Hi all,
I want your advice as I’m a bit annoyed today! Went out with my new friend yesterday and spent all day running around after my young child as well as hers!! She sat down watching most of the time from afar while I made sure they were both safe! Why do some people do this?! I feel like I’m a target for this! Anyone else experienced it and what did they do?!
30 days only
When other parents assume you’ll watch their child when out?!

How old were the children? Do you maybe have different expectations of the level of supervision required? Could she have been sitting down thinking "why is she hovering over the children so much?" rather than "oh good, she's doing all the work and I'll relax!"
She might still be wrong and a bit lax on supervision, but she might not have been expecting you to do it either.

Bil and sil do this
They are the only parents I know that take their kids to the park and sit with their backs to them
