We just do our best to cope with that visit and never repeat it. <br /><br />That said, I don't expect kids to fall asleep before midnight on sleepover nights so am prepared for it, husband stays up late with them and I go to bed earlyish, ready to wake up early the next morning. <br /><br />Sleep doesn't happen on sleepovers.Maritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08186136444811595697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7137486548457649315.post-51617011057659464162012-09-26T11:51:24.621+10:002012-09-26T11:51:24.621+10:00Oh my lord I've had kids like that over, and I...Oh my lord I've had kids like that over, and I really don't get it. It makes me paranoid that my own kids would act badly at another person's house, and I just wouldn't know about it. It would have to be a complete personality change though. I have seen young kids like that grow up into well mannered teenagers, so there is hope!The Kids Are All Righthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15767765308684598060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7137486548457649315.post-20989435946080871392012-09-25T15:50:12.802+10:002012-09-25T15:50:12.802+10:00I used to love other people's kids...until I h...I used to love other people's kids...until I had my own. Now I find them very....grating. Maybe it's because I am accoustomed to my childrens' quirks, but I think it's mostly that parents these days are too busy to put as much effort into basic manners and respect than they were 20 years ago. <br />I am huge on my children using their manners. That being said Greenie is so shy around people and at best gets silly to try and cover it up, that that would probably appear rude. <br />I also fear how my children may behave when I am not around. If that were my child I would have died at how she played up for you.<br />When we have bluey's friends visit I am straight into "Well these are the rules at our house and if you can't follow them then don't bother coming back." Sometimes you've just got to be the mean friends mum, but really you won't be losing any sleep if those kinds of kids don't come back, will you?Miss Pinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04339773113889860348noreply@blogger.com
