You are the "poster who cried troll". It seems like you are on EVERY thread accusing people of being trolls! Get a new hobby, please.

+1,000,000 You really are such a bore - on every thread is a post from you calling someone a troll. Get a life.

+2,000,000 Just because someone's post includes details doesn't make it long and a troll post. If reading an entire paragraph is too difficult for you then maybe DCUM is the wrong place for you to spend your time. You are probably the same person who calls troll when people DON'T have a detailed OP and then add details later.

Show them how to gracefully say good bye, and help them find closure. That may mean a card from the kids acknowledging the fun they had, and a thank you from you. It may mean taking some pictures of her with them, for them to look back on. It means letting them bake cupcakes for her last day. Just make it about them and what they need to do to feel good about saying goodbye.

Some excellent ideas here. Thank you.

To the troll poster: I will be reporting all your posts from now on since you only cause drama. If you believe someone is a troll, report their post. Jeff will do what he sees fit

It's not severance if you didn't terminate the nanny.

OP here - not a troll. a real question. I have rarely been on DCUM but what I have seen is that expectations vary wildly and I was considering some severance and my husband was not. Our only prior experience was very different. Thanks to the other posters for the feedback without attitude.

Why would you give severance if she's leaving on her own free will? Your only duty is not to let her go before her notice period. When you decide to change jobs and give a two-week notice, do you they give you a gift at the end of the two weeks? Of course not.
