[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When everything was open this was pretty standard to see at playgrounds and library story time.[/quote]

First, how can you possibly know who was a nanny and who was a parent?  Our nanny is older and white and everyone assumes she is my children’s grandmother.  My best friend is Latina with two blonde children and everyone assumes she’s the nanny.

Second, even if you were correct, it isn’t right, fair, or safe for any caregiver - parent, nanny, grandparent - to be distracted by the phone when watching children.

DP here and our nanny is never on her phone either at home or outside.  My SAHM friends and neighbors confirm it and I work from home so I know.  [/quote]

Did you ever go to library time with your child? [/quote]

Sure!  Neither nanny nor I were on our phones.  [/quote]

+1. Pre-covid, when our library had storytime, phones weren’t allowed.  Same with our old Music Together class.  Not even to take pictures.  [/quote]

That’s pretty abnormal. At least for the free library time. More than half of the caregivers is on their phone at some point. [/quote]

Even if you’re right, it’s still inexcusable.  [/quote]
