[quote=Anonymous]While I agree that it isn't fair (neither to you or the children) I don't know if it would be appropriate for you to say anything. If you take on more of a co-parent role and MB consults you for child rearing advice then I think that it would be safe for you to mention something gently. If MB calls all of the shots and she doesn't ever come to you to hear about your child rearing philosophies or advice regarding dealing with the children's behavior, etc., then it might inappropriate to say something. It really depends on the type of relationship you have with MB and how open you are with her. If you mentioned something to some parents they might think that you're trying to tell them how to parent or get defensive. If you do mention something I would try to keep the focus on the children and let her know how it disrupts their morning after they go into meltdown mode. You can tell her that you hate seeing them upset and go over some ways to avoid this. [/quote]
