We've been patching together spreadsheets for payroll and monthly reports but it's starting to get a bit overwhelmindg at month end and things dont always tie up properly.

Starting to feel like we're missing something in the process but not sure what. Has anyone found a setup that handles proper reporting packs and forecasting without being too complex, or did you manage to stay on excel longer than expected and just make it work somehow?

My 10 year old son recently got invited to a sleepover by one of his classmates and he was super excited about it. The problem is i don’t really know the parents at all. i’ve only seen them briefly during school pickup and never actually talked to them properly. because of that, i told my son i wasn’t comfortable letting him stay overnight there. He got really upset and told me all his other friends are allowed to go. now i feel guilty because i know he probably feels left out and embarrassed. At the same time, part of me feels like being careful is just part of being a parent nowadays.

AITA for saying no because i don’t know the parents well enough?
