[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again

I think the parents are just happy to have free childcare (and its now DD and 3 of her friends).

I have flexibility to work later if necessary that they dont have and they take care of my kids plenty of other times, so I dont mind it, even if I dont get much work done, but I just want to be clear about how much I plan to be involved. When they have taken my kids, its usually not while they are trying to work and often more structured activities.  But if the kids want to turn on a show, I am not going to be monitoring how long its on or who is allowed to wear nail polish and who isnt.  I also am not ashamed to bribe with treats when and if necessary.

Hopefully, they will entertain each other downstairs without too much drama while I accomplish something upstairs. [/quote]

I am prepared with lots of arts & crafts, beads, friendship bracelets, rainbow loom, board games, a new puzzle, and books, in addition to everything else in our playroom. So I am not setting them up to watch TV all day, I am just not going to fight it if the situation arises. [/quote]
