[quote=Anonymous]Like the title said, my MB and DB are asking me for behavior management advice for their 3 kids (ages 3, 5 and 7). I am firm, but very fair and the kids and I have a great time when I am with them. I have to handle some temper tantrums, but I do so quickly and the kids calm down. I am teaching the kids manners and that screaming for something doesn't get you what you want. When MB and DB get home, its complete chaos. I am a live-out, so I get to go home. I know that their parents are tired after a long day, but giving in to the kids as soon as they start screaming and demanding something is teaching the kids that their parents are push overs. Both MB and DB told me that they don't like saying "no" because they don't want to deal with the tantrums that follow. I'm at a complete loss. The kids are good for me, but their parents are making things worse by not saying no. I will help where I can, but I don't want to over step my boundries.[/quote]
