Speaker 1 (00:01):
And Amanda gam Nation. Playdates. You know, it's the thing
of childhood. You go to someone's house, They come to
your house, and the mum says, hi, how I hi,
missus skella heim whatever, whatever, and then you raid the
kitchen and you muck around, and then it's time to
go home.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
And then someone says, can I stay over? Ashi? Mama
forgot stay asher. Mom gets a Coca cola as mom
drink some of the liquor.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
She's got any smokes. Playdates are changing, though. It was
interesting because we recently spoke about sleepovers and the same
thing was happening. Where parents don't allow their kids to
go to sleepovers or the rules around it are quite different.
It seems the same thing might be happening with playdates.
Let's start with this one. I've got two examples of

(00:48):
why would you bother? This person charges kids or charges
the parents when the kids comes for a playdate, even
for electricity. It's hard to believe this is true. Mum
of two Rihanna Weimar was happy to welcome her son's
friends over to the Washington home, but while her son
played with his friends, she kept a watchfuly on the guest.
She watched what the kid ate, what he drank, the

(01:10):
games he played, and then when his parents came to
pick him up, the parent was given an invoice for
Australian fifty five dollars American thirty six for the food
and supplies that your child used during the playdate. Thanks
for covering your share.

Speaker 2 (01:26):
I'm calling a bit of BS on this, but I
having said that it's christ.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
For them, having said that, you think that that's extreme
and weird and as if anyone would do that? What
about this? This mother has set up a playdate liability waiver,
so if kids want to come to her house for
a playdate, the parents have to sign a waiver.

Speaker 3 (01:46):
You will not believe what this mom texted to me
after I asked her to sign a liability. We were
Anne and Andie before her son came over to my
house for a plead. I had my lawyer draft up
this liability waiver and NDA to protect ourselves from anything

(02:08):
like go wrong at a play date. It's standard procedure
for us to have the parents of her kids friends
saying the years before they are allowed to play at
our house. What would you have done in this situation?
Am I in the wrong here.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
So I'm looking at the waiver. It's voice.

Speaker 3 (02:26):
I know.

Speaker 1 (02:26):
It's terrible, isn't it. It says the parents have to
say yes, so understand the risks that are inheriting a playdate.
The parent receives full responsibility for any injury. The child
might have a case of medical emergency, blah blah blah,
this will happen. I hereby release the people who are
the family who are hosting the playdate from any responsibility,
any liability for any injuries, breakages, et cetera. I can

(02:48):
sent to having a photographer or photographs or videos of
my child during the playdate being used for personal use,
and they might be used for media or promotional purposes.
You got Tom Cruise, what a weirdo and how to
take the fun out of anything. Yeah. We once had
one of Lim's Jack's friends over for a playdate on

(03:08):
the same day that the whole of the neighborhood's raw
sewage flooded the bottom of our house.

Speaker 2 (03:13):
I remember that.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
So it was flushed twice.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
No, I remember the time.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
It was terrible. It was terrible.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
The jump up overflowed.

Speaker 3 (03:22):
You had it all in.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
Your The whole neighborhood's sewage, and the mom came to
pick Thomas up and just had to tiptoe through the
sewerage because the boys were playing upstairs and this all
happened downstairs through the sewerage. Yuck. Playdates and sleepover do
you remember?

Speaker 2 (03:41):
I just it's funny as you're mentioning that. I remember
having a sleepover and at someone's house, and I didn't
go too often. You remember when you were a kid,
you had your your sleepover mate. You'd always go to
their place. This is one of those sleepovers were I
only went there once, but I remember we're all in.
He had a bunk bed, and which was pretty cool.
I was in the top bunk, he was in the

(04:02):
bottom bug and his mom came in. Good night boys.
But she was wearing this like ninety.

Speaker 1 (04:08):
You come on, how old were you eighteen?

Speaker 2 (04:12):
No? Oh, no, I was young. I was like about
ten and she's wearing this ninety And I was like,
I just remember having this, like it was just spectacular.
It was like, no, what I mean?

Speaker 1 (04:23):
You were ten?

Speaker 2 (04:24):
Yeah? But I was like, as a kid, you just went,
you went in my life. It's one of those moments
just pop up.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
When does it pop up? You're just you know you
needed to sign a waiver.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
Don't be outraged. It was just all there. Nothing weird happened.
Have I said too much?

Speaker 1 (04:47):
Was there any memory in your entire life? This is sexual?

Speaker 2 (04:51):
Yeah, of course there is.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
Of course you're trying to think of one.

Speaker 2 (04:55):
There's plenty. But you know whatever, for.

Speaker 1 (04:57):
Me, yes, please finish sentence.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
What these are moments in my life where you know
they're visceral flashbacks? Don't you get visceral flash's? I do.

Speaker 1 (05:08):
I don't share all of them on the radio.

Speaker 2 (05:10):
No, I just it's a visceral flashback. I can't still
and it was nothing.

Speaker 3 (05:15):
I know.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
I'm making a fair fist of it right now, but
it's not a bad thing.

Speaker 1 (05:23):
Well, this charming conversation has gone somewhere else.
