I agree with Mickyc...I don't like to have to tell a child something when their parent is here but they are starting to do things that they know is not allowed and I have had to start speaking up.

One of the children has started to take out toys that are not out and her mom says nothing. I have extra toys on a shelf in the nap room and the mom doesn't say anything when her daughter runs in there and brings them out. It's something minor in the grand scheme of things but it drives me crazy lol

My last two kids get picked up around the same time and their parents are both ones that would allow their child to play another 20+ minutes so I bring them upstairs to my living room. We either watch tv or have books to read. When we go out to the kitchen where the entrance is I now have to stand in the doorway blocking the living room because the girls will run into the living room and their moms just stand in the kitchen talking to me or yelling to their child to come to them. I don't allow the girls past me now but they still take up to 15 minutes sometimes getting their child out the door.

Maybe I'm the crazy one but don't people want to go home and enjoy their evening off? I know I want to start my evening!! lol
