[quote=Anonymous]My 7 year old rides the bus to school and the bus stop is 3 houses down. I can see him from my living room window. I use to always walk him to the bus stop everyday with my 2/3 year old but 5 weeks ago we had another baby. Since that point I have been just watching him walk to the bus stop. Our school policy is only K-ers have to have a parent at the bus stop and even that is only after school. After school I still pick him up at the bus stop. My neighbors nanny (who I like and know well as we chatted everyday for 1.5 years for a few minutes) mentioned she will "look after Larlo since the baby is here." I causally said "thanks, I can see him from my window, plus he's getting older so it seemed like time!" My neighbor then texted me over that weekend saying "Nanny is totally willing to watch Larlo at the bus stop and I don't mind "sharing" her let me know a rate you think is fair, I am sure she will be fine with it, she is very easy going!" I wrote back "Thank you but we feel Larlo is old enough for this responsibility and I can see him from me house." She responds "Nanny will always be there so there is NO way she won't be supervising Larlo." I didn't respond. Now DC has mentioned that the kids at the stop (all of Nanny's charges) are being quite around him and they aren't allowed to run around the trees anymore. He is worried he said something wrong but can't think of anything he did. I feel so bad for him but I also think its ridiculous. Would you just ignore and offer Nanny a few bucks??? [/quote]
