I would say that the closer it is to closing time, the harder it is to let a parent dilly-dally. Also, the further past closing time, the more agitated the provider gets with the parent that doesn't respect business hours.
We all know that sometimes we need/ want to discuss things with the parent at pick up, but if they come late then it really ties your hands and makes it difficult on top of an already long day.
So to answer the OP's question, if I'm reading these responses correctly, we can for the most part say that we all set our hours for different reasons, and it is not fair when a parent crosses that (or any) line repeatedly. It is how you feel about it that should determine if it is right to point out. Some aren't as bound to their hours, and can afford the extra time. If you can't, then yes, it is fair to request that it stops.
