So great to be put in this awkward position, where my one friend's two youngest boys are driving us (hubby and I) up the wall every time they come to call on kiddo. We literally played dead in here for over 10 minutes, and they just. Kept. Knocking. And not normal "rap-rap-rap". More like "four-handed drum solo". Not. Impressed. :thumbsdown:
How do I tell the people whom I've dog-sat for, and whom share their snow-blower with us, that their kids are being incredibly irritating? How do you go about telling someone what their kids have been doing without them potentially getting up in arms about having their kids "criticized"? If kiddo does or says something inappropriate, rude, etc. I want to be told so I can try to correct the issue with her; but I have no clue how I'm supposed to do that in this instance. It's too delicate, and likely to blow up in my face, because sadly, not everyone can hear the truth without getting ****y about it.
Gods, it'll be nice when they're all back to school, and by the time they're out of school for the day, it's basically dinner-time--and thanks to winter, too dark--for them to pull this nonsense. :meh:
