How would you handle this? (Overtired dcg)
I have a new dcg whos been with my for a few months. Her parents aren't together and she goes back and forth between houses, so there is some inconsistency in her schedule. However, its really starting to affect her behavior here. She is so tired when she gets here, she can barely get through the morning. Shes cranky, irritable, taking toys, having tantrums etc. and I really think its all a result of being overtired. She constantly asks me all morning if she can go have a nap! After nap time, usually I have to wake her up, she is like a completely different kid: happy, smiling, singing and dancing. I have made comments to parents that she seems really tired, but now Im at the point I want to demand they start putting her to bed earlier....Do you think that is crossing the line? I don't want to tell them how to parent, but when it is affecting my day negatively I kinda feel like I have the right to say something....Thought s?
