[quote=Anonymous]The parents micro manage (although they don't see it that way I bet) bc they want to feel involved and have some sense of tangible household control to compensate for the fact they're never around (you said only 20 hrs/week they see the kids?). Not condoning it, but just saying it's not a personal attack on you. It's just a very common mentality of workaholic disengaged parents who rely on the nanny way more than they should. Feeling burnt out is typical in any industry. Have you taken any days off for yourself? What do you do in the hours while the kids are in school and after light house pickup? In theory, you should have a chunk of consecutive hours to recharge and do what you feel like, no? Are you a live-in nanny by chance? [/quote]
