[quote=Anonymous]Someday you will retire and your children will be grown and gone. They may, or may not, come to see you once or twice a year. You will be hurt because you worked all those hours so you could give them every material thing money could buy--clothes, car, education . Other than education all of those material things are long gone. Their memories of you are nothing. Their nanny was the one who took care of skinned knees and broken hearts. They will have the nannies ethics and morals so be very sure you hire the right person. I know where of I speak because I was that child. My mother died when I was four and a nanny/housekeeper was the person I loved. My father died when I was 27 and I have yet to shed a tear for him but when the Nanny died, my heart was broken and 35 years later I still miss her. All choices have consequences and you cannot make up time with children. [/quote]
