Wondering what others policy is on leaving behind bulky items such as strollers and wagons, etc. I've had this issue pop up a couple of times in the past with this one family. They are shaky ground as it is and have had several warnings about their son. However, that is another thread altogether.
Friday morning dcd arrived with dcb on his wagon. It's a pretty big plastic wagon. Seats 3 kids easily. So he parked it in our walkway along with the other strollers that dcp's leave behind for the day until pick up.
Friday afternoon he picks up his son (who is tantruming and being his usual difficult self). And they leave, I notice their wagon propped up against my house on my walkway. So I texted dcm and dcd and told them that in future, I would appreciate all bulky items such as strollers and wagons be taken back home with them. I cannot be responsible should it go missing and most of all, I don't have the room to store other peoples bulky belongingsThis is a residential property.
Dcm texts me back "oh, sorry, it's just that dcd and dcb had to take the bus to go somewhere afterwards, we'll come get it tomorrow". So I'm even madder now that these folks left it on purpose assuming I would store it all weekend and Monday as well (as I'm off on Monday for a vacation day). Very rude.
I think I'm going to have to adjust my policy book to include NO storing items on my property".
I guess they thought about it and realized their lack of judgement and picked it up last night.
