        you say, to the parents:

        “Kids are a riot, aren’t they? I heard them living it up already early this morning. All that youthful energy! I wish I could still run around like that. Unfortunately I’m getting older and I need my beauty sleep, and can’t get up that early without feeling it later. I’m sure your understand how it is.”

        This shows:

        • understanding of their situation without judgement

        • your needs and expectations without being demanding

        • trust in them to handle their own business now that they have this information
