driving me bonkers, we come in for tea at around 6 and then I dont like them going out again as I want them to wind down and do homework and guitar practice etc. neigbourhood kids permanently knocking on the door despite being told this many times. I then feel really mean for not letting my 2 play. Ongoing issues with one chhild being allowed out all the time and being at houses where the parents have no idea and havent even met us. this particular child called yesterday when my girls werent here, neither was I, dh was here doing some studying, she asked if she could come in anyway obviously dh said no, then asked if she could play in our garden, again dh said no. I send kids home when we are eating as I dont want an audience and like a bit of time with the dds on my own, discovered none of the neighbours do this. Also I dont feed other children and I would like mine not to be fed I like to have contrl over what they eat around dinner time but despite being told repeatly they continue to take food.Anyway nothing to say really just wanted to rant, AIBU to make my kids stay in after tea and to send other kids away when we eat?
