[quote=Anonymous]As someone who has worked as a nanny with many families over several years, I’ve often wondered this: Do parents actually want honest feedback when their child consistently struggles with empathy, impulse control, or age-appropriate reasoning, or is silence generally preferred? I know this can sound harsh on paper, but in practice, these patterns show up in very specific, everyday situations, and the wording often feels stronger than the reality in context. For example, I’ve worked with a child who laughed when another child got hurt and showed no curiosity or concern, even after it was explained. In another case, a child repeatedly blamed others for situations they clearly caused and seemed unable to reason through why that affected friendships. [/quote]
