[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People generally expect a family to take better care of their kid's nanny. I think that's why PP is so sensitive about the mention of the nanny's profession. I'm sure PP wouldn't want HER nanny to be walking alone on deserted streets at night. Right?[/quote]

You and other PPs made the inference that the nanny's employers were negligent, which may or may not be the case. We have no facts to prove that.  But by adding in her profession, you automatically slant the article.

[b]Hey, OP - would you have posted this if the headline had been - Bus driver robbed at gun point?  But b/c nanny was in the headline, you stopped.  It becomes THAT MUCH MORE pathetic, right?  And yet, the crime is the crime.[/b]

So automatically, many of you started to question the employer (the mother, I'm sure) for not caring properly for her nanny.

And no, I'd never allow that to happen to my nanny. She drives, however, and it's never at night - for us, at least.

So nanny was added in to attract a specific group.  And I'd venture to say that that group - represented by many of you who posted - is mostly moms!  [/quote]
