Wow.... thats crazy! Thats worse than what I'm dealing with!

My home is really open floor plan, but it's one of those where there are multiple levels, so the living room is three steps down from the kitchen. The library is three steps up and one room over from the living room. ect. And our walls are unbearably thin. When a child is out of my sight, they are well within my hearing range and generally this catches most incidents. From now on though, these two will always be within eye sight of me. They are here for 14 hours on the days they are here, so after about 4 in the evening we let them play with our kids in the basement where our boys rooms are, and the rest of the toys in the house. We have a storage room down there that is blocked off and all the kids are told they are not allowed in it multiple times. They had gotten through my barriers to get in there, so the basement is now off limits at all times.

The kids were picked up early today by dad but mom is coming over tonight to drop off money. I'm pretty nervous
