I babysit for a couple that has two boys, 3 and 7. They drove me up the wall the first time I babysat for them! I called my mom so many times it wasn't even funny! Their mom said that they could both sleep in the older one's room, but an hour and a half after they were supposed to be in bed, I went up to the room and found them talking, laughing and playing with their LeapFrog Leapster! Under the guidance of my mom to be more firm, I carried the three yo to his own room, and layed him down in his bed. (a firetruck PlaySkool bed frame) He threw the blanket off of him and crawled between the 'windshield' and the wall and cried, whimpered and wailed. I continued to pick him up and put him on the mattress but he was just as consistent! Ten minutes later, he grew tired and I threatened to call his mom. He stopped, got in the bed, but cried until he was too tired to anymore. I am babysitting the same kids in two hours, WHAT DO I DO?! Will they hate me? Will this happen again?
