[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am shocked that everyone is attacking OP.  I think you are being taken advantage of and, I don't know about the rest of y'all, but ten minutes in the morning is a lot.

Tell her that you can give her another week, but then your schedule is changing.

It was nice of you to do it for three weeks![/quote]

+1.  All of the PPs who attacked the OP - are you schlepping your dear neighbors kids anywhere on a daily basis for a year? Only those who do are entitled to be indignant here.[/quote]

I do better. For a few weeks every summer I care for my best friend's kid ALL DAY, along with mine. I am also the go-to driver for my friends (surgery, etc) or take care of their kids, since they work and I don't. It takes way more than 10 minutes daily.

I agree OP needs a firm end date. The reason she was attacked is that she was clearly so ignorant and dismissive about the complications of having twins. 
I hope she asks when these parents can handle their older kids, and that she also learns a lesson in empathy.[/quote]
