HaLeiVi – thank you for the affirmation! I would want to jump in tho and restate that I think it would be a mistake to omit the explaining part. I think adults are mavens at leaving things unsaid when they shouldn’t. The reason i say it is important to be clear and verbal is because you can add all the “together time” you want and hope it will give the message you intend, but you never know what calculator the daughter is using. She may think you are giving equal time, or less time. She may think your hour at bed time isn’t quite parallel to the other girl’s 15 minutes at the library. It is important to just say, in words the girl will understand, that her spot is “set in stone”. Say it, don’t imply it. please.
