Q: If you ask the parents for guidelines in advance, you can back up these limits with parental authority. Just like younger kids, older kids need clear rules. For example, they might still have an early bedtime. You have to resist the urge to give in to their pleas and be firm about your rules.  If the child has trouble cooperating, turn your instructions into a game. For example, you could challenge them to get ready for bed in under five minutes. Offer the child rewards for behaving. For example, let them pick the movie that you watch or the board game that you play. Older children appreciate being treated like adults. For example, give them a choice whenever you can. This will show the child that you respect their opinions. Similarly, stay calm and positive when talking to the child. This will encourage them to stay calm and positive as well.  Don’t interrupt the child when they’re talking. If you do, they’ll feel like you don’t respect what they have to say. Never lose your cool. If you panic, the child may lose all respect for you. Some older kids like to trick babysitters. For example, they may try to convince you that they’re allowed to play outside with their friends unsupervised. Firmly tell them that you know they’re not allowed and to stop asking. Of course, it helps to have asked the parents about these limitations in advance, but when in doubt, say no.  If they persist with their falsehood, tell them you’ll call their parents for permission. If you catch the child lying, don’t take it personally. Stay positive and friendly. If the worst happens, remember to keep calm. Children take cues from the authority figures in their lives; if you freak out, they’ll freak out. Refer to the list of emergency numbers that the parents gave you to figure out who to call.  If the child is in immediate danger, help them before you call the parents. The child’s safety comes first. If the situation requires it, you may need to move to another location. Keep the children with you at all times by holding their hands. Before the parents leave, ask them to show you where the first-aid kit is.
A: Set limits. Treat the children with respect. Be ready for falsehoods. Be prepared for injuries.

Q: Many devices lack full access to Netflix preferences. Log into the Netflix website instead using a computer or a mobile device's web browser. From there, you can change your preferences as described in the computer section above. It may take up to 24 hours for changes to propagate to other devices. Start streaming a video on your Android Netflix app. Tap anywhere on the screen, then tap the Dialogue icon (a speech bubble) in the upper right to open these settings. Some devices may have additional settings available. Look for a settings icon in your Netflix app. This typically appears as three vertical dots. iOS devices can change subtitle and language options by tapping the screen when a video is playing, then pressing the Dialogue icon in the upper right. To access more preferences, exit the Netflix app, visit your device's Settings menu, and scroll down to Netflix. Most consoles, TV additions, and Smart TVs do not have access to all settings. You'll have to log on using a computer instead. The exception is audio and subtitle settings, which are usually available in one of the following ways:  While streaming, press Down. (most consoles)  When a title is selected but not streaming, select the Dialogue icon (speech bubble) or the "Audio and Subtitles" option. (Wii, Google TV, Roku, most Blu-ray players and Smart TVs)  While streaming, select the Dialogue icon (speech bubble). (Wii U)  While streaming, hold down the center button on your remote. (Apple TV)
A: Use a mobile browser when possible. Change subtitles and language on an Android device. Choose options on an Apple device. Access audio and subtitle settings on other devices.

Q: The riser is the small pipe that connects the sprinkler to the water line. The sprinkler head sits on the riser, which helps to regulate its up-and-down movement, rather than directly on the water line itself. To remove the sprinkler head, twist it to the left, or counterclockwise.  If the riser comes off with the sprinkler head, simply unscrew the two pieces and reattach the riser to the water line, being careful not to damage the threading of either piece in the process.  Be careful not to let too much dirt or debris fall into the open water line. It may help to cover it with a small cloth or plastic bag while you're working. To ensure that you're getting the type of head you need, take the old part to the store with you and purchase the same brand and model. If for some reason that's not an option, confirm that the new head has the same overall length and diameter as the old one.  Sprinkler heads come in several different sizes and lengths. If you get one that's too long, it will stick up high out of the grass after you install it. If it's too short, it may not reach the surface of your lawn from its seat on the water line. Consider shopping around for a head that features a removable flush cap rather than a traditional nozzle. Flush caps make it easy to clear dirt from the head following installation or use. Wind the tape neatly around the riser threads so that it forms a thin, uniform layer. Applying thread seal tape (also known as “Teflon tape”) will fill excess space between the riser and the body of the sprinkler head, creating a snug connection and decreasing the chances of future leaks.  You can find thread seal tape in the plumbing aisle of any hardware store or home improvement center. It's not necessary to use thread seal tape on polyethylene risers, as the soft plastic will typically bend and expand enough to form a secure seal on its own. Position the female end of the sprinkler head over the male end of the riser and twist it to the right (clockwise) to install it. Continue tightening the head by hand until it's nice and secure. Jiggle your new sprinkler head a few times to make sure it isn't loose. Any extra movement could be a sign of a poor connection. Rotate the sprinkler head until it's pointing toward your lawn, shrubs, of flower beds. The last thing you want is for your newly-installed sprinkler to water your car instead of your plants! There should be no need to adjust a radial sprinkler head. These send out water in a full 360-degree radius, ensuring even distribution over the area they're situated in.
A:
Unscrew the faulty sprinkler head from the riser. Buy a replacement sprinkler head that's the same size as the old one. Wrap a length of thread seal tape around the male end of the riser. Screw on the new sprinkler head. Adjust the sprinkler nozzle to direct the spray pattern where you want it.
