[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, one of our au pairs judged us. We have one easy kid and one who likes to challenge authority (within age-appropriate range of behavior). The au pair confessed that sometimes she wished we'd spanked the not-so-easy kid to make her job easier. We worked really hard to create a calm home environment and teach our kids to be kind and generous, but she said we were too calm and sometimes she wished we'd just spank our kid and get it over with. Just typing this out makes my heart hurt. Thankfully she didn't last long and we've since had much better experience with subsequent au pairs. But yeah, it's a special pill to swallow to be judged by a young childless person who's never had much life experience, who should not have been working with children to begin with.[/quote] Don't you judge that au pair for thinking violence is the answer?
