[quote=Anonymous]You have to be firm with the parents on what your limits are. My 5yr old asks me every day of its a school day or a weekend. I don’t think a 6yr old can do the mental math to determine if she has exceeded the random number of days or hours you deem acceptable in any given week. I assume it changes from week to week. Maybe just have a set window when she is welcome and then “Larla it’s 5pm, you need to go home so we can do homework and dinner” Just shoo her out every day at the same time - and talk to the parents about her crying on your porch. Maybe 6 is light years more mature than my 5 yr old, but it seems like you are asking a young child to understand social norms and nuance way beyond what she is capable of. [/quote]
