We dropped off our kids together at the old daycare. I was always polite to her but didn't really like her. She used to make comments like "your daughter and my son are really great friends". My daughter is 2. When I called her she said she thought that because we were "friends" and our kids were "friends" that I would be ok with her picking her up and taking her to lunch.

I did talk to the teacher. She said she's never had to deal with anything like this in 18 years. She said she didn't really know what to do other than escort her out the door and not let her take my child. I told her if ANYONE came that was not on our pickup list to call me ASAP. I don't know if I should, but I am letting the daycare provider off the hook on that one. Was it a mistake? Yes, but the important thing is she didn't let her take my child.
