Playdate in the rain!! Ok my 12 yr old, soon to be 13 yr old (next Wed 28th) son calls me from school and asks me if he can go home with a friend and hang out. I asked if the kids mother was home and if the kid asked her. He said yes and I told him to call me when he gets there. So he calls me when he gets there and I tell him I will pick him up at 5:00. I call him at 4:45 and tell him to wait by the door of the house so I don't pass the house. He tells me that him and the other boys are outside. IT'S POURING!!! I say but its raining and he says yeah we've been out here. Mind you he has his school clothes on and his brand new school sneakers. I pick him up .... he is soaked... The mother is in the garage and just waves to me and I wave back.
My son doesn't have too many friends and I didn't want to make a "thing" out of it but I am pi$$ed. Silly me to assume that they were inside playing video games because this is his favorite passtime.
I could not imagine having my kids friends over to play and sending them home soaking wet because they were playing basketball in the street in the rain!!!
I fuming! Now I have to, I guess, put his brand new Nikes in the dryer. And I have to hope he doesn't get sick. WTF???
