So... I'm the adult volunteer for Duckie's group of six Junior Girl Scouts. We've had a meeting scheduled for tomorrow evening for well over a week. Duckie's bff and twin are part of the group, two other girls from Duckie's old troop and we have a new girl starting tomorrow. The new girl is a bit of a difficult child and her mother approached me about her daughter joining a few weeks back because she's struggling socially.
So this is where the drama comes in: The Disney movie "Prom" opens in theaters tomorrow and Duckie's bff has decided that she really wants all her besties to go to the movie on the premier night... during the meeting. The mom (who I really do like) tried to get the girls to change it to Saturday, no dice. She asked me to re-schedule the meeting so Duckie can go. I have a feeling she doesn't want to listen to her girls if they can't see the movie Friday. I can't do this, it would be irresponsible for me to do that. So now Duckie is disappointed.
Duckie said she understands that it's the right thing to do, but I hate that she's put in the middle. Ugh!
