[quote=Anonymous]I've been with my nanny family 18 months and within the last 6 months they've been really overscheduling their 7 year old daughter. She has dance class for 3 hours until late at night 2 days/week and 2 hours of dance 1 day/week plus she goes to church classes every week for 1 hour. She is constantly tired, whiny, emotional, crying over nothing and stressed out. She falls asleep in the car when we've only been driving 5 minutes. I've mentioned this to the parents and have even told them I think she needs more sleep. They agree but nothing changes. They don't make her go to bed early because she's normally out until 7pm most days during the week. By the time she has dinner and takes a shower it's 8pm bed time and she's usually in tears at that point. Would it be overstepping my bounds to tell the parents I think she is completely overscheduled and should cut back on the extra activities? I feel like my charge is becoming unmanageable because she's so tired all the time. It just breaks my heart. If I do bring it up, what would be the best way to get a favorable outcome? Thanks in advance.[/quote]
