A lot of parents do seem to get super stressed out about their children's friends, and that does make sense. After all, if they're spending a lot of their time with the same kids, you want them to be a good influence.
This Mom has been seeing a lot of the 7-year-old boy next door, who hangs out with her son and daughter constantly. And it's because of the pool, of course! If you have to choose between swimming in the pool on a hot day or doing literally anything else, you can guess which activity is getting chosen.
In the story she told below, this Mom questioned whether or not the 7-year-old's parents were taking advantage of her niceness. They seem happy to let their kid spend all day in someone else's care.
And now the situation has escalated even more!

This is bad news
-
The parents are way too casual about this! Their son's safety is at risk here.

Maybe this Mom should offer that the son can swim but only when he is supervised by one or both of his parents. And if not, well, that's too bad. He'll just have to find another game to play with his friends that doesn't involve water.

This would be my final straw, personally
I would print it out, give it to her, and ban the son for life, because that is just so impolite. No more free babysitting ever again. So much for that "it takes a village" mentality, huh?
