Just had Dad turn up...

[nipper]

...on my doorstep, asking for his daughter.

"Erm no," I reply...

"I haven't looked after ___ since September...!

What a silly Billy! Sent him trotting off to the nursery down the road, where she goes to after school club.

[lisbet]

Oops!

[dette]

you could have offered him another child to see if he would notice lol

[nipper]

Damn!!!!!! I could have given him my daughter.

[dette]

lol

[nipper]

Rather sad though, makes you wonder if mum and dad are still together or not?

[silvermist]

Oh how funny though...and slightly embarrassing for him!!!

[sarah707]

Better than them forgetting to come for her I suppose

[cathtee]

Wonder if he told mom of his mistake

[harleyrider]

Oh my! Not communicating well, do you think??

[kel1983]

wow. Thats weird.

We have had the odd parent turn up on the wrong day to collect.

I've had a parent forget before, got to half hour after pick up time and I've rang him, lol it was funny, he has totally forgot

I've had a Mum turn up when her daughter was at school netball club (which had finished 15mins before) and not due at mine that day.
At least I knew where her daughter was!!

I have had a dad turn up on a day that his children don't come to me so they must have been somewhere else......he went off and I don't think he knew where they were!

Its a good job we know where other peoples children are. I had one turn up here and I said I dont have them on a Wednesday, off they rushed to collect from the nursery, which they went too one day a week....lol

Also one of my after schoolies went to after school club one day a week and I was waiting for him (it wasnt their day) and saw him go past with the after school collector behind a locked door.....panic, ran round the other side of the school after checking with a friend what day it was and intercepted them. I was all in a panic and they just handed him over without question which shocked me.
