firstly i must commend you for putting up with someone's else daughter, not alot of people can handle such a difficult situation.
secondly kiddies that age are always naughty. always running around and causing havoc, thats what kids that age do. dont judge her, it isnt her fault she's just a baby.
you need to speak to your bf and let him know clearly the stress its causing you.
if the mother wants to drop the child spontainously she needs to give more notice as you may have already made plans to go out.
you are entitled to a life too, and although he has a child it shouldnt stop you having basic right of time together.
good luck
