[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parent here and I think that the babysitter questions should absolutely stay in the nanny forum in the babysitter section.[b] I'm glad the forums were separated and that the nannies are largely contained in that area[/b]. It sounds like you expect babysitting questions posted in the main forum will automatically attract input from actual parents. If you remember from the days when the forums were together, any questions about child care went the same way. The first few responses would ask what you pay the sitter (no matter what the question), they second set would contain insults about hiring cheap sitters who don't speak English (no matter what the question) and maybe, just maybe, you'd get a post or two with some on topic and useful advice.

If your question is about childcare, it should go in the forums about childcare, in the nanny section. I agree with a hardline policy on this. If you want the nanny forums to be more useful to parents, then participate there and help clean it up by posting good questions and thoughtful responses to other people's questions.[/quote]

:shock:

Should nannies also have separate water fountains?

I don't really have any strong feelings either way about this topic (& actually agree with a couple of the points you made) but find your phrasing here makes you sound like an insufferable snob.
