[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand why it has to be either or. Why can’t you have a conversation with her? It seems silly to fire an otherwise great nanny because you can’t communicate simple parenting decisions: “Nanny I think it’s wonderful that you’re sharing your faith with DD. The prayers before meals are great and I love that you read her bible stories. However, at this age I want to focus on the positive aspects of religion. I don’t want to talk about hell or tell her that Jesus will be mad at her if she misbehaves.” If the nanny is receptive, you’re done, all is well. In the unlikely case that she feels she has to focus on the punishment aspects of religion, let her go. [/quote] This. Personally, if I d all religion to be archaic, but if you are religious AND agree with what she is teaching your child, then allow her to focus on the POSITIVE aspects of religion. This is YOUR child and there are plenty of wonderful nannies out there. [/quote]
