My almost three years old dts attend a small playgroup - the only preschool experience available for 60 miles as we live in a very isolated community. We have been going along since they were newborns and now my child carer usually takes them as I am usually at work. A new family has moved into the area with a 5 year old and a 3 year old - the 5 year old boy doesn't go to school - he is homeschooled, but his mum takes him to playgroup with his little brother. He likes lots of rough and tumble and is far too much for my twins, as well as being very rough with the playgroup equipment - his behaviour is that of a lively school aged child and I think that he is a bit much with his yelling and boisterous behaviour. I have spoken to our playgroup president who is a bit wishy washy and says that she doesn't want to isolate any families and basically doesn't want to say or do anything. I am starting to get a bit het up about this - the mother is using playgroup to try and give her child a social life to the detriment of my kids when , in my view, he should be at school (which happens to be next door to the playgroup - school gives playgroup a building to use for free and is a nice little school with very small numbers and a need for extra kids).

To have a faint objection to school aged children regularly attending a playgroup for preschoolers
