I totally understand your frustration, especially if you are the one to have to make up for the lack of parenting on the other end. Unfortunately, it is your husbands responsibility to deal with whatever comes up during his parenting time.

I did have a daycare kid with it here once. It had to be kept covered at all times...actually it was during the summer and I also insisted the child wear long pants. Just wash everything when the child is done with it and insist on keeping it covered. It would also thoroughly clean the bathtub/shower/toilet seat after the child uses it.

I get your frustration; it's hard to be an overwhelmed stepmom and a daycare provider!
