How would you approach a mother about teaching her children NOT to harass/hit animals?

I have been helping my friend babysit lately because the children are little terrors. LOL. So of course I have to bring Slayer with me cause the husband is working. They torture her endlessly and are constantly pulling stuff that if the average dog was dealing with and not a pit bull or child friendly breed they would lose thier hands/faces. They blow in her face, pull her cheeks, slap her, jump on her and even try and leash her and walk out the door with her if they think you aren't looking.

Slayer is a real trooper, and we always send the kids on time out or scold them but it is an issue that doesn't cease and I think its almost time to talk to their mom. The other dog at the residence almost bit then little girl 3 times now, and one of these days he won't miss. I am proud of my dog and her tolerance...but I do not think the kids have been taught very well. What scares me is the the mom tells me she has had LOTS of dogs in the past, you would think they would know better.
