Daycare Parents

I don't really know what I'm trying to say here, and there's not really any drama or major issue to deal with, but I need to post this somewhere!My wife and I have realized that we don't really like the other parents at our daughter's family daycare. There's nothing awful about them, we just don't have much in common and as of late have come to be frustrated by the parenting styles of a few. Our kids play together every day on the nearby playground after pick up, and over the winter we would gather at someone's house once a week so the kids could play together inside.Things were great when our kids were all turning 2 and just running around being silly together. Now they are all turning 3, and I'm starting to see some parenting styles emerge that are problematic. One parent sits on her phone ignoring the world while her daughter kicks my child in the face repeatedly. Another's son and my daughter try to run out of the playground, and if I hadn't grabbed them they would be off down the street. And then, as I tell my daughter "if Daddy sees you do that again, we are going home" the other kid's father says "you're not allowed to run outside of the playground with no shoes on". Not surprisingly this boy has some serious behavior issues and you can see exactly where it comes from; his well-intentioned parents are far too lax with setting rules and consequences. The list goes on...We would just skip these playground sessions but our daughter loves her friends and begs for them. We're not about to say no, day after day while the rest of her friends play.I guess where I'm at is discovering, for the first time, the conflict of wanting my daughter to have fun with her friends while really not enjoying the parent group. I'm sure they don't feel perfectly about me either, or about each other. I'm sure I am bringing a judgmental mindset of my own, because what I've written above is not really generous.I assume this will be an ongoing process throughout my daughter's childhood and even adolescence, and I want to learn to manage these reactions, because she shouldn't have to arrange her life around whose parents I can tolerate. Any suggestions? How to become more balanced about this and care less? via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2lnmlJ9
