A mom on Reddit was criticized because she didn't take her daughter's best friend home after a sleepover.

"My daughter, Rowan, 11, recently hosted her very first sleepover. She invited her best friend, Amanda, almost 11, who lives just across the street and two houses down from us. They did all the classic sleepover activities: pizza, popcorn, a movie, face masks, and nail polish. Everything was going perfectly—until around 11PM, when Rowan came into our bedroom to let me know Amanda was homesick and wanted to go home," she began.

"I went to check on Amanda, and while she assured me she was having fun, she really wanted her mom. Fair enough. I texted her mom, Susan, to let her know what was happening, and she said it was fine for Amanda to come home. So Amanda packed up her things, and I walked her to the porch. From there, I watched her walk the short distance to her house and go inside safely before heading back inside myself," the mom continued.

The next day, however, Susan unleashed on her when the two women ran into each other in the neighborhood.

"I asked how Amanda was doing, and… well, Susan was furious. Apparently, Amanda had been upset about leaving early, but what really got Susan’s blood boiling was that I didn’t walk her to the door. She berated me for letting her child 'walk home alone, at night, in the cold, with the potential of God-knows-what happening to her,'" she shared.

The woman added that they live in a safe neighborhood and she watched the little girl return home safely.

"Susan didn’t see it that way. She’s still furious and has been telling neighbors I put Amanda in danger. Despite my apologies to both her and Amanda, she’s banned the girls from playing together. Now I’m left wondering—was I wrong not to walk Amanda to her front door?" she asked Reddit.

"One of the neighbors siding with Susan mentioned that I should have known how protective she is of her kids, especially since Amanda is typically a shy and fearful child. I’ll admit, I did know this about Amanda, but my own kids are the total opposite, so it wasn’t even on my radar to walk her all the way home. Maybe it should have been. If Amanda had asked me to walk her home I absolutely would have," the woman added.

Users in the comments section sounded off on the situation, with them siding with the mother.

"As others have said you literally watched her get to her house. Not only that but you called the mom to let her know. She herself could have easily walked over to grab her, that’s not your responsibility. I can’t remember a single time I had a homesick friend that didn’t have their own parent pick them up," one person wrote.

"Wow. No wonder the kid is so anxious," another added.

"Why didn’t Susan walk across to get her if she’s so concerned?" someone else questioned.

"Seriously, you watched her go inside. What more are you supposed to do? Tuck her in and sing her a lullaby?" another quipped.
