[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you don’t know the difference between the love of a grandparent and the ‘love’ of a person who is hired to perform a task then I am sad for you. [/quote]

I'm sad for you that you can't see that people have different circumstances. It must be tough for you living in a world where your always right and perfect amongst so many normal people....  is it hard to connect with people or do you just stick to your own?

....this is a rhetorical question because it is obvious you cannot see others' perspectives.[/quote]

I’m sad that you can’t separate your individual situation from generalities. Not one post has said every or always. Obviously if your parents suck that’s suboptimal, but to imply that there is no distinction between the love from a loving family member and someone you pay is clearly short sighted. I’m assuming that you love your children more than their caregivers even though they may spend more time with them. Why is that? Could it be because you are the child’s family and they are not?

NP here.  But we aren’t talking about a parents love.  We’re talking about a grandparent vs a loving nanny.  In my world, the loving nanny is a better option.  I know it and I see it every day.  But that isn’t true for everyone.  [/quote]
