I’m have a bit of a quandary that I asked advice for from my mom’s group, but let’s see if Nostr advice is any different.

A 10 year old boy in our neighborhood has decided to adopt me. He saw me staining our fence a few weeks ago and stayed and talked to me for most the day and has come by just about every day since and spends 2-6 hours over at a time. He’s not a nuisance. In fact he’s super polite and helps me with everything from cooking to gardening cleaning the pool, and playing with my dog BUT I still have met his parents. I have gone over 3 times to meet them, but he says they work a lot and I left a note last time introducing myself, telling them what a great young man they are raising, and I left my phone number. Crickets. I certainly would never let my kids spend the day with a stranger, but I don’t have the heart to ban him from my house.

What would you do in my situation?
