I understand how it may sound nice to have a friend come for a visit, this job can be so isolating.
The problem comes when she just wants to leave him with you for five minutes to run to the store/Dr. appt/drop hubby's lunch, what is the problem with that??? After all she has already brought him over before, he knows you, you're already keeping kids, she will only be fiiive minutes, geez.
Then she tells your other neighbor how selfish you are, you could not even help her for fiiive minutes, "who does she think she is anyway. I wonder if she is even running legally....." << Just one possible, but all too real, scenario we have heard about here before.
Don't start what you won't want to continue... that includes neighbor kids, extended family and your own kids friends.
This slippery slope ends badly. Trust me.
