Dropping off too early?

[kindertime]

This is something I am seeing more and more. Not so much "give an inch, they'll take a mile," in your case, but the parents who drop off their kids "on time" or early when they aren't even going to work. Understandably, everyone has doc. appointments, errands, etc., and may need time without the kids, but when they drop off in their pajamas in the AM and at pick up in the PM, but the kid has had a full day at DC, what is that?

If it's bothering you as much as it would bother me, you might consider specifying that you will only accomodate this need on work days.

Thinking about it a little more, I guess I can see if they are paying $30-$40/day, or more, there's an argument for it, but I'm in QC and my parents only pay me $7.30/day. So I really don't understand it!!

shouldn't matter how much they pay, they are taking advantage and getting care outside of the contracted hours. That is so sucky, I hate dealing with early/late pick up stuff, it makes me feel disrespected.
