When your child has a playdate with a pal after school, it can sometimes be a great feeling of relief for the parent who gets a short break for a while. However, it's important to not take advantage of this and turn your child's friend's parents into free babysitters, the Mirror reports.
One woman has found herself in this exact situation after she realised her neighbour was sending her six-year-old daughter round to her house whenever they came home. The mum who has a toddler says the little girl loves coming round to play with her son but her company is 'exhausting' as she has to 'watch like a hawk because she's much older and not careful.'
The frustrated mother claims the little girl's parents allow her to wander over alone to their house as soon as they arrive home and says she is 'basically free babysitting'. Unsure what to do next without making things awkward between her neighbours, the mum took to Reddit to seek advice.
She titled the post: "How to say no to neighbour who keeps sending their daughter over to play, without souring the relationship?". She wrote: "My neighbour keeps sending her six-year-old daughter to our house to play with my 14-month-old son. Sometimes for an hour.
"And the parents don't come too, sometimes they don't even know she came over. The girl watches our house from her bedroom window and comes over five minutes after she sees us come home.
"I reject her at the door half the time and say the baby is sleeping. It's exhausting for me."
She explained the youngster 'loves her son' but it 'takes up her time' to watch her around him. The mum said she wanted to 'draw some boundaries without ruining the relationship with neighbours' as she asked for some suggestions on how to handle the situation.
