[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For lunch, we usually have beans and rice, chicken with rice, angel hair pasta with red sauce, or macaroni with pesto.  Keep in mind that DD is 1 1/2 and will not eat sandwiches or many other things, so I kind of cook with her in mind.  Also, nanny is from central america and wont eat sandwiches for lunch.

Today, nanny refused to eat lunch (not in a mean way), complaining that she cannot eat beans and rice or pasta today because that's all she eats.  I asked her in the past what she'd prefer and all she can come up with is chicken.  When I ask her what she ate for dinner it's usually eggs, cereal, and rarely beef or pasta.  I also note that she gets most of her groceries free with food stamps.  She also goes clothes/toys/home shopping every single weekend and wears new clothes almost everyday, so I don't think money is the issue here.  Honestly, I don't have the money to be cooking her a beef or chicken dinner everyday for lunch (I cook all our lunches homemade), and even if I did have that kind of $$$, DD cannot eat a dinner essentially twice a day because the nanny wants to go home and not cook anything or not buy meat for dinner I guess.  I suppose I do not necessarily know her entire life circumstance because I don't have a cam on her when she leaves, but this quadry is getting frustrating and she has no ideas as to what to do for lunch other than beef or chicken.

What's your opinion?  I'm open to everyone's non-snarky thoughts.[/quote]

There is a reason she is a nanny. If she really doesn't like it, at any time she can go [b]back to night school[/b], work her way towards that elusive degree.  [/quote]

Oh and I forgot delusional. While I guess it's possible for some to work an 8-10+ hour day, come home to your own family and make dinner, after that I don't see how night school fits in? THEN, if she is on food stamps, the likelihood that she could afford night school is pretty slim I'd say.[/quote]
