Grrrrrrr other parents at the park

[sunnydays]

My issue is with the daycare centre at the nearby school rather than parents They come and swarm the park with a group of 16+ three year olds and we are forced to leave because it isn't safe for all my toddlers when there are so many kids. Last time we went to the splash pad, we had been there for only about 10 minutes and a group of of 24 kids from the daycare centre arrived Our splash pad is tiny...I didn't think it was safe even for the daycare centre kids to have so many, let alone for my little ones. We had to come home and use the sprinkler instead...soooo frustrating! At the same time, I know the parks are public and everyone has a right to use them. Maybe people get annoyed when I show up with my 7 kids (2 are my own) as well...I don't know. I haven't had too many issued with parents, although I do notice more of them playing on their phones for sure. My issue is with the daycare centre and sometimes other home daycare providers who don't watch their kids well enough (there is one lady who lets them all go barefoot...pays no attention when one of her dcb's climbs up the slide or climbs into my stroller etc.).
