[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My nanny feeds the kids (9, 7, 4) Monday through Friday. I could never cook 7 meals per week. They would eat cereal most nights if it was up to me to cook. I hate cooking.

We will keep our nanny as long as possible because of dinner. We pay her 5.5 hours a day to work 3 and it’s so worth it[/quote]

So you never eat dinner together as a family during the week? [/quote]

Yes. I don’t really care about it and don’t understand why it’s such a big deal for people.

On top of that, DH gets home at 7:30 pm most/every nights and kids eat at 6-6:30 and in bed by 8. DH and I will eat at 8:30-9[/quote]

+1 also don’t care about it and don’t know why people are aghast that we don’t either. DH has always worked late. [/quote]

Honest truth, because it’s a clear demonstration of your priorities. You have older kids and are choosing not to spend with them - the entire week, every week. And how much time can your DH spend with his family if he’s not ever home? That’s why people are aghast. That they’ve never said any of this to you directly means they’re just polite.[/quote]
