Should they be forced to stay?

Today it is cold and wet here down under, and I have two pairs of socks on and we are not even into winter yet………………..anyway how is everyone?

On Friday night we had Little Leo here for the night and on Saturday night we were supposed to have Blain his mum dropped him off here around 1pm and around 10 minutes later he wanted to ring his mum and ask why he had to stay here as he didn’t want to stay, so I let him ring her and she didn’t answer her mobile so he rang the house and she wasn’t home yet so he left a message for her to ring him back…………………anyway she did ring him back eventually and he asked why he had to stay. They talked for a while and then she talked to me and said that she didn’t have anything to feed him for tea (dinner) and I said if he still wanted to go home after tea then I could take him home.

However he didn’t stop asking why he had to stay and started saying to me “feed me know I want to go home” in the end I rang Kathy and asked her what she thought I should do, it was upsetting for me to hear him say he didn’t want to be here anyway Kathy said to pack up what I was going to feed him for tea and take the food and him home. I said I thought Natasha would get pissed off and Kathy said she would get over it. So that is what I ended up doing, as I was leaving Natasha’s place after dropping Blain home she said could he come over the following Friday and I said yes he could. It wasn’t till I got home that I thought I should had said to her that he could come if it was what he wanted to do, I don’t want him to feel like he is being forced to come over for the night.

So here is the question for everyone am I right or am I wrong………………………….

Do you think he should had been forced to stay here it wasn’t like his mum had plans to go out or anything and she only has him 3 nights a week Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights.

I love all my grandchildren and I like having them here but I don’t want them to feel like they are being forced to stay with nanna and papa, Leo will complain about staying sometimes but he gets over it very fast it is just when his mum (Jessica) leaves that he will have a cry but usually 10minutes later he is over it.
