I have an entrance hallway into my home and I stand at the end of it and chat with the parents in the morning and in the afternoon and they can't get in. I have the children ready to go when the parents arrive and get them out as quickly as I can. I do have one Mom who likes to chat but I like her and don't mind. I would never put up with anybody coming in and making themselves comfortable in my home unless I asked them in. That's just rude!
