So some lady that is my son’s friend’s mom wants me to pay for a carpet cleaning bill because my son had an accident. This is just straight up crazy because I have never heard a parent try to charge another parent with a bill for spilling something. I know that my son can be clumsy sometimes but he is eight years old and sometimes it happens. I felt really bad about the incident when she told me but I am not going to pay for something that was clearly an accident. She has kids so she should know how hard it is keep an eye on them at all times. Sometimes they sneak away and get into things and make a mess.
I think the blame should be on here because she is the one that should have been watching my child. Apparently she was not watching him that hard because he was allowed to go into the house alone and he even opened the fridge to get the juice that was spilled. Now listen I am taking full responsibility for the spill that my son left but i think it is a little ridiculous to ask another parent for cleaning money. When you set up a party for eight year olds in your home you should be ready to face the consequences of having that many little kids run around. I am going to call her when I am done typing this to tell her that I am not going to pay for the carpet cleaning.
