[quote=Anonymous]OP, I'd approach it like the babysitter approached you - provide the details of a handful of the most recent, most egregious incidents and tell her that you think you need to take a break or change the supervision dynamics or whatever. I am SO, SO grateful that my friends have had candid conversations with me about my kids' behavior, when warranted. It has helped me parent better and equipped me with information that I needed but didn't already have. I am surprised at the number of people saying that parents don't want to hear negative things about their kids - I consider that information invaluable and it has helped me help my kids develop the skills they need to be in the world.
