[quote=Anonymous]OP I'm very interested to see this thread. I guess I must defer to majority opinion, but I'm very surprised; I've never had a job where the parents told me what I had to do with the kids (short of appointments, lessons, etc.) but rather they'd tell me what the kids might enjoy, or of an activity they heard was going on, and leave it to me to decide how to structure the day. So this is a new issue for me and I would probably feel the same way you do (being in the sun all day, even with a hat, really takes it out of me). I would hope that if you talked to your MB and said basically that, and that you didn't mind staying at the pool all day a couple of times a week but would she be okay if you took the kids to do ______ on the other days, I would HOPE she'd respect you as a person who also has human needs and preferences, and would agree. 7 hours at the pool, especially if it's every day or almost every day, is over the top in my opinion. Even when I take the kids to the beach, which is a big production and a fairly long journey, we don't stay more than three hours![/quote]
