Chatty parent makes late closure

[Van]

Personally I find it easier to be indoors at closing time and I am able to be in control of the situation and just open the door for them while outside I use to find parents loved looking at their child playing and did not want to spoil their fun by saying now we have to go so indoors in better for shorter goodbyes

Send home a letter stating that due to everyone leaving in the same 10minute period parents will need to refer to their communication book for daily updates. If they have concerns they need to discuss in person the parents can make a note in the communication book for the next morning noting they will arrive at X time to discuss it before the other parents arrive. (obviously establish when they can arrive to discuss matters so they aren't hanging out at random parts of te day!)

Note that will fall courses having started you will be closed at X:XX and leaving the house at X:01 to get your family to their classes in time.

While many families want to connect for that personal touch...it is NOT feasible if all families leave at the same time and it is not fair for you to have to work past your closing time to repeat what you wrote in the books. They will need to arrive early to discuss things before the mad rush occurs.

Odds are when it starts to inconvenience them (instead of you) they won't feel the need to discuss the daily details quite so much .
