[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are all nuts. Except for those who wrote normal responses. I pay $30 an hour. The former nanny used to work for 6 hours a day. And no, she didn’t have to be with infants or toddlers. She used to do projects with our youngest: play dough, art, construction paper, etc. they used to spend time outside or ran around the house playing tag or hide and seek. She used her phone only when her grandson called (they live together). It’s sad they moved to a different state. I pay for a nanny so our youngest doesn’t have to sit with me for 2,5 hours while the other child is training. So she doesn’t have to be in the car for an hour. So she can have her own classes like ballet and art. Yeah, I guess it’s time to look for a new nanny. Why on earth should she be reading news while at work? I am not asking to hover over my daughter, I want to make sure they are doing nice fun things together.[/quote]

Wow, sounds you like you don't want to be around or spend any time with your youngest. Sad.[/quote]

Exactly.   OP wants to be able to sit and scroll on her phone for the 2.5 hours she's waiting for her older child to "train."[/quote]

All of you who are commenting like this have never had a nanny. Insane, mean-spirited, troll comments.[/quote]

It's insane to point out that OP is paying someone to watch her kid so she can sit at a practice for 2.5 hours? Why does OP bother to sit there herself? How boring.[/quote]

Not to me. I have to watch because it’s a serious sport and I have to be there if she falls. I don’t just sit around doing nothing. Plus I do enjoy it all. Just like my middle child. Some parents are there all day long. They bring their laptops and work. [/quote]

Are you spotting her on the uneven bars or something?   Doesn't the gym have paid trainers for that?[/quote]

I'm guessing i[b]t's ice skating[/b]. My daughter is in competitive gymnastics and no parents are sitting there "in case they fall" Maybe something like ice skating or horse back riding are different. But by then the damage is done if this sport is that dangerous.[/quote]

My sons are hockey players.  Nobody sits around waiting to see if they get injured.  There are coaches and rink staff for that.  [/quote]
