[QUOTE="Malika, post: 470433, member: 11227"] Well, now, I seem tougher than you on this question, Janet :) Basic unspoken rule in this house is that what we drop, we pick up.... however. I can see and accept that it's unreasonable to expect J to not be affected by his long day and to be able to do things in that state of tiredness that he would usually do. I tend to see it as a principle is a principle... you get the idea. But there needs to be more flexibility, I can see that. He actually really, really wants to go to garderie - he has a great time playing with his chums and although there is no need for him to go in the mornings (school starts at 9) he always asks to go. So I DO often have a lot of work and need the extra time but it's also about J playing with other kids which, without brothers and sisters, he constantly asks to do. Anyway, thanks guys. Useful to get this input. [/QUOTE]
