Dck (sibling set) are the last ones here everyday. Dcm likes to drag out pick-up and I'm not sure how to handle it.
Her kids act up when she comes and hide from her, run around, etc. I try to have them all ready to go before mom comes. They sometimes throw off their shoes and coats when mom comes.
When I explain to the dck that when mom comes it is time to go home and they can't run and hide from her, dcb will sometimes cry and then it's a big scene.
Any suggestions? Like I said they are my last ones, so I wish dcm will just grab them by the hand and go.
Is it too harsh being like "I've got to make dinner. See ya tomorrow!" or something along those lines? I've had them all ready to go before but as soon as they see dcm they lose their minds.
I'm also guilty of engaging in conversation with dcm and I've let it go on for so long, that I'm not sure how to end it now.
