[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our nanny has lived with us for years, she usually leaves on weekends to stay with friends but hasn’t left for the last six weeks. On recent weekends she either works with us and gets paid over time, or does her own thing. She has her own private space within our home, with a separate entrance and free access to our car. 
This week she told us that she now wants to leave on weekends to stay with her friends, she misses socializing and she believes that they’ve also been social distancing so it will be ok for her to spend the weekends with them. They are all young and her friends rent apartments and have room mates. 
We told her that obviously she’s welcome to leave any time, but she won’t be able to come back this time as we’re taking the shelter in place directive seriously. 
Do you think we’re being unreasonable? 
We both work and need the help, and we won’t replace her given the current dynamic, but she’s been here and knows that we literally haven’t left our property for two months so we’re not going to be ok with her leaving [/quote]
Six weeks on house arrest? Poor thing is probably ready to go batty. Emotional health can be an emergency situation.[/quote]
