I didnt even do it

[parisonmom]

Last night my dad asked me if I wanted to go to the lake. I asked my dh first because of my SD. So I asked SD if she wanted to go and she said no. Ok so I told dh is it ok to go with my DD and DS and he said yes if she said no. Ok well today he asks her and now she changed her mind and there is no room for SD and I thought she said no. So dh said I shouldn't go because she changed her mind and then he said that he didn't care. But he instists that I should like stop what I wanted because she changed her mind. Help!!!!

If it would be the same with your kids then don't take her.

Quoting parisonmom:

First of if my DD and DS was old enough to say no or yes it would be the same UNLESS we was doing a family thing.

Quoting leegirl_jm:

Would she have asked her kids if they wanted to go?





I would just take my kids, no really give them an option but with a stepchild, I would think SM would have to ask the stepchild and their parent.

I wouldn't make my kids miss out in something because one of my stepkids changed their mind when it was too late. Your SD said no, so that's that. Maybe next time she will say yes to something fun.

I am still trying to understand what happened between the time SD said no last night, till this morning, that caused there to be no room for her.

Since that question has not been answered, I am going to assume that nothing happened, and your refusal to take her with you this morning was based on you simply wanting to make some kind of statment and cause drama.

poor kid.

she said she would let her dad know. Probably that there was no room for him or her sister in truck

but she was going "with the dad" in the first place. how could there be no room for dad when it was dad who invited the OP in the first place?

If, AFTER SD declined the invitation, that caused the OP to then go and invite someone else, thus filling up all the seats in the truck, then I could see how there would no longer be any room for SD. But, I'm getting the sense that is not what happened, and the OP just doesn't want to let this kid change her mind.

Actually the whole post makes no sense, starting with the OP asking permission to go in the first place.

Maybe I'm just trying to apply logic to something that just makes no sense to begin with.

who in their right mind would cancel their plans and all sit home, because one person who was invited last night, then changed their mind.

no one would.

am I the only one who thinks this entire scenario is ridiculous?

[leegirl_jm]

I think it is ridiculous to be asking permission to take your own children, and my husband telling me I shouldn't go, that is just downright hilarious.

[boysmom5]

It's nuts for the rest to miss out because of one. I wouldnt let my DH guilt trip me into staying home just because one of his kids wanted to throw a monkey wrench into the day.

I asked her the night before. I would told my dad she wanted to go if she said yes the night before. So when she said NO I took it as a NO and not wonder if she would change her mind at the last minute. So the truck got full and she faced that fact that she said NO.

I still went.

I mean I asked her and she said NO so I didn't prepare for her to go to save room.

At the last minute changing her mind to YES then expecting me to figure it out. I think not.

So after I had fun with my DD and DS. I took them to my brothers and did some fun things with her.
