Ok so here’s a pondering question
what excuses do you give family/close friends if you’re out playing/club etc
Luckily i’m really into music and i use seeing a band as an excuse often.
But for example hubby & i are actually seeing a band this sat, on Fri 19th we’re going to a
club night & i know my mum is gonna quiz me where im going & it’s a Fri can’t exactly use “crochet club” when hubby is going too
what’s everyone’s excuses & telling them to mind their own business isn’t my thing/our family
luckily with HW childcare isn’t required - but when playing as a couple
help this mama out xx |

"I remind them that it would be considered controlling behavour to know exactly what I am doing and where I am, I never ask them."
How is it controlling behaviour to take an interest in your life? Do you not take an interest in anyone else's life?
If you're parents leaving your kids with someone it's also about practicalities for if something happens ie child has an accident etc.
Why does everyone have to feel repressed by everyday life |

We tell friends/relatives that we're going on a 'date night' - technically true, and we've never been questioned further about it.  |

"You have to report to people then ? "
well when your mother is sitting in your house watching your kids - often they ask
oh we’re are you going
I could tell her to go FK herself but good chance i’m no longer going out as not babysitter |
