Is this what OP said or something you assumed? |
Is the pool at your house? If so, why haven't you taken all the necessary precautions to keep child from going to pool by herself? I had a pool and we had alarms for ALL doors as well as an alarm for pool. These are simple, easy to obtain and install. You are even more at fault than the nanny! |
Why would you give severance? |
OP never said it was a pool. Everyone is assuming pool but it could just as easily be riding a bike without a helmet and the kid broke an arm or leg and is under observation for a concussion. OP gave no details. Everyone is speculating. |
Way to jump to conclusions |
The OP has a child in the hospital with a serious injury. You speculate 1) that a pool was involved; 2) that the pool was a backyard pool that was not sufficiently protected and that 3) the OP is more at fault than the nanny. You have none of that information, but you choose to assume the worst- based really on nothing, and pile guilt on a mom who is probably already feeling incredibly neglectful and awful in her hiring choices. You are really an awful person. |
I'm so sorry that your child suffered harm, OP, and I'm astounded by your kindness in asking what severance to pay the nanny while you are in this position. I myself would be probably pondering how to best torture the nanny before brutally murdering her and her loved ones. ![]() |
