[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is there such an assumption that the nanny's kids are SO much more deserving than the original poster??  I have a wonderful nanny, and I hope the absolute best for her and her future children.  I honestly do.  However, my kids can go to private school because I spent 12 years in school post-high school and I work 80+ hour weeks.  [b]My nanny works about 25-30 hours per week[/b].  I know if I was this original poster, I would be upset if her child got in with full aid over my children.  Assuming, of course, all other things being equal.  We are both minority families so that is not a differentiating factor.  I don't think there should be such venom towards the poster just because she has the money to have a nanny and consider private school.  Maybe she works extremely hard and deserves it!

Your nanny works 25-30 hours per week [i]for you[/i].  She may well work other jobs to earn extra income.  I have no idea what her situation is, but I doubt she can make it on 25-30 hours per week.  I pay my nanny extremely well for FT work ($40,000+ per year for 1 child- yes, really) and she still takes weekend work from others because she needs more income.  I find it hilarious that you think that because you only pay her for 25-30 hours/week, she isn't hard-working or deserving enough to merit a full scholarship at a private for her kids.  Have you asked her what she does during all those other hours during the week?[/quote]
