My mom watches our 3yo son when my husband and I work, usually 4 or 5 hours a day, 3 days a week. She usually clears her schedule and doesn't have to go anywhere, so he's only gone out with her a small handful of times, and every time she lets me know ahead of time.The last month or so, though, she and my dad have taken him out and about 3 times without saying anything until after they get home. Now, I have absolute confidence in my parents' abilities to drive safely, buckle the car seat correctly, and not injure my kid in any way. The problem I have is that in that time, I'm under the impression that he's at their house, not out on the town and that gives me a little anxiety. Like, what if something happened to me or my husband and we couldn't get a hold of them (they're notorious for not answering their cells when out)? Or worse, what if something happened to them and I have no idea where they are?I was planning on going to my mom and just asking for a text letting me know they're going out, but I feel a little ridiculous. I mean, they don't need my permission, I just want to be informed of where my kid is during the day. Is that too much? Am I being silly? via /r/Parenting http://ift.tt/2F0nK4g
