We live in a condo. Next store they have a darling 2 yo little girl. She bangs on the door to see GG everyday. Well, GG started buying juice drinks, crackers, etc for her. She comes and sits every night on a chair he bought for her. The 2 sit and watch cartoons. She has her snack. Mom hovers. I am there.
So I said to the Mom-if you need to run to Target or something you can just leave her with us.
Wouldn't you take us up on it? GG can't understand why she doesn't. The little one is 100% happy with us.
GG just gave her a birthday present. I mean he is attached.
While it all is completely innocent, that's a mom looking for a problem.
On the otherhand, she could be looking for adult conversation and a friend, herself.

I wouldn't take it personally, unfortunately with what you hear on the news and things you hear in the community it makes a parent very cautious. At least the mom isn't dragging the child away. Maybe have them over for bbq to get to allow the mother to get to know you and GG better.
Give it time and don't push it. Clearly Mom's open to her spending time there or she'd put a stop to it. She probably just wants to get to know ya'll a little better.
The more I think about it, the more I think the mom is trying to make friends, too.

Yeah, sorry, but that could take a while. It's not you, but a cautious mom. We hear so many horrible stories. Her child has become taken with a strange grown man and he with her. Think about that if you didn't know him.
