Concern For a Schedule Provided for a 3, 5 and 7 Year Old

[Guest]

I was hoping for thoughts on a schedule a friend of mines other parent chooses for their kid. I think it’s insane and wrong on so many levels. What do ya think?

6 am wake up

6:20 am other parent pick up

6:30 7:30 free time to sleep or do whatever

8:05 arrival for school

8:20 5 and 7 year old kids breakfast

8:40 3 year old breakfast

12:00 school aged kids lunch

12:30 3 year old shower

1 pm ( littles)lunch time

3:40 arrive home from school

Dinner

4:00 showers school aged kids

5:00 desert if wanted and then brush/ floss teeth

530- 6 pm nap time
6pm

10:00 pm bedtime

Well it may be all that a single parent can manage. It seems the children are being cared for. What do you think is insane about the schedule? Here are some examples of daycare schedules.

Well. School aged kids should get 10-13 hours of sleep. Ish. The 3 year old should nap before 6 pm and going 16 hours without food isn’t alright either. No snacks.. and no outside time. Those are my concerns and I was just curious what others did for schedules.. cuz this seems whack to me.
