[quote=Anonymous]We have a similar situation. I try to make it clean in the morning that I will not be picking her up and will see her when she gets home. Then there is no expectation that I might pick her up and no disappointment when I don't. I also try to make it clear when we're going over our week on Sunday what she can expect. (E.g. I will pick you up on Tuesday since you're staying late for a club meeting - the other days you will walk home). Our school has an aftercare program (its a PK-8th) so when she gets to grumbly I offer to sign her up for that and then pick her up at 5:30pm. She stops grumbling pretty quickly at the mention of aftercare. [/quote]
