"So did you want to come and get your son?" [View All]

[AlCzervik]

My poor neighbor kid, he's the little brother of a 14 year old super star soccer player and he himself doesn't play but his parents are all the time with the soccer this and soccer that. So i invite him to go to the movies with my daughter and I today and he's all excited because that means no going to his sisters soccer party, anyhow his moms says "We'll pick him at 4:00pm ok" yup, fine by me, so now it's past 5:30 and he's asked me about 6 times "when is my Mom coming to get me" well i call old Mom she says "Oh, I'm sorry we just got caught up in all the fun, i'll be over to get him no later than 7:00 ok?"---"O'clock?, he's feeling a little hurt and he was worried something happened to you, can't you get here any sooner or better yet why don't you talk to him?" so she says "Oh he can be a bit of a drama queen sometimes. he's fine, we'll see you at 7:00"

And then she fucking hung up! WTF?? He's a good kid, he's been friends with my daughter since we moved in 5 years ago and i've watched how his sister's star has risen in the eyes of her parents but he's kind of nowhere. I feel really bad for him and i feel like kicking his mother's ass. When he's estranged from them 10 years from now i wont be surprised at all.
