A friend has asked me to babysit her kids for a whole day. Being true to myself, I know that I wouldn't be able to cope with her kids, as well as mine! I struggle some days with just my two.
I feel bad though, because I know she desperately needs a break from them, and time alone with hubby. I feel like its up to me to provide her with the opportunity (I have narcissistic parents so its kind of ingrained in me to please everyone around me, iykwim?). I know it isn't up to me, deep down.
I just can't do it, though, and I am having trouble breaking it to her.
Can someone help me with some suggestions as to how I can tell her no, without upsetting her?
