Parents seem to forget that we have families and commitments to our families. This was a wonderful offer that you proposed and the parents should be very grateful. I open at 7AM and have had parents want their child to come early. Depending on the age the child either lies on a mat till I think it is time to get up or stays in a playpen until I am ready to start my day. This way I can deal with my family's needs. I agree with mimi "give an inch..." .
