If they "made" her be a princess, chances are that they aren't going to help "fix" her now.

Personally, I wouldn't put up with her disrespect. She would be playing alone a lot, sitting in time out a lot, getting toys/privileges taken away.

As far as how much of the bad behavior we tell parents, I'd love to know what everyone else does also. I hate to talk to the parents for 10 minutes a day about all that jr did wrong, but if it were my child, I'd like to know what my child was doing so i could work on it at home also. Unfortunately, too many parents these days won't work on things at home as the child is the boss, not the parents.

Just to clarify, I don't tell the parents everything. I might pick one or two behaviors, if they were really bad and I thought the parents might work with the child on, and tell the parents that. Some days I'll just say, "it was a Monday" when they ask if they were "good".
