Was I Terribly Wrong?

Actually we don't talk much. She calls her dd's cell when she is on her way and the girl runs out when her mom pulls up. She used to come to the door and we would chat but she only does that rarely now.

That is rather odd behavior by the other girl's mother.

I had almost the exact thing happen to me some years ago. A mom and I were talking about a summer rec program in town. The other mom trashed it and said it was terrible. A few weeks later, I decided to register my dd for it. When the other mom fopund out she accused me of purposely leaving out her child. I was floored. I explained that since she said the program was the pits, I just assumed she wouldn't want her dd to go. I later learned that the mom was a complete and utter drama queen and refused to play along with her.

As for the dd spending weekends at your house. I was that kid during 7th and 8th grade. I spent every weekend at my best friends house because of some things going on at my house. I will forever be grateful to her mom and dad for letting me be there all the time.

Why is that odd? My kids' friends's parents don't always come to the door. Sometimes they just honk the horn, or like the person in the OP, call their kid (if he/she has a phone) when they're on the way. Some people don't like to chit chat. When I pick my son up from his friend's, I send my daughter to the door if she's with me.

You're good. You gave the information to her daughter. The woman knew about the camp and could have called the church to get the information herself.

This...

The mom could have probably went on the the church website to get the information too.

OP - you are not running the calendar/ reminder function for the BF's mom.

Furious... really? Are you sure she was directing her anger at you and not her DD for not bringing her the papers? Why would she assume you didn't want her daughter there if you said to her you sent the stuff home with her daughter? If you are right on the money with her actually being mad at you she sounds like an odd duck.... nothing you can do about that

If this girl has been to this camp before, then the mom should have anticipated that the information for this year would be coming out soon, and she should have called the church for it if she didn't receive it.

I have a friend who is like this too. She is very needy and dependent and relies on me for information that she can very easily get herself. I like her a lot, but that just drives me crazy!
