Hello, I am new to this forum and quite shocked at some of the bad manners from nannies. This is the employers section and I hope you do not get totally turned off by some of what you see. Most nannies are happy to help you with questions. Using words like shut-up to someone's post you do not agree with is imature and no help at all. Employers we like you and thank you for employing us.

If you are going to throw out words like that to try to be insulting at least spell them right.

9:01, I wasn't "trying" to be insulting, it was my intention, misspelled or not. Thank you, Uriah Heep.

Um, I'm certain all of you +1s are the same posters who'll complain on other threads that a spelling or grammatical error does not negate the value of someone's input (and you'd be right). The same is true here. OP's obsequious post is unsettling and servile, as well as completely unnecessary.

Oh gosh give it a rest. Don't continue coming back if you think OP's post was unnecessary.

OP - I agree and I do believe the attitudes on here have damaged the reputation of nannies. I know not all nannies are like this and heck, I don't even know if it's all nannies who are posting those low-class comments but I have a feeling because of the egos many of them have and how the ego gets damaged quickly if anyone mentions cleaning, being flexible, "low" pay rates, or something related. Deep down they don't think their profession gets respect (most of it is inside their heads), so they get snarky when they don't like a question, opinion, response. I don't think they realize that they're doing more harm then good on the respect-o-meter.

1) I was a new poster, so the "coming back" and "give it a rest" are irrelevant. I shared my opinion once.

2) Have you looked through the non-Nanny forums? This bad behavior on DCUM has nothing to do with nannies and everything to do with this forum's anonymity. Many posters on the regular parenting site behave badly too. Apologizing to random people you've never met (and will never meet) for the posts of other people you've also never met, who may or may not actually be nannies, is bizarre.

3) Nannies in America, as a whole, do not receive respect. It is not inside anyone's head, it is just a fact. I would be happy to point you to the lovely post that explains the historical and social implications of the nanny industry in this country and its origins if you missed it.

4) Of course no one should be snarky. Nannies, employers, trolls, everyone should handle themselves as they would if we were all having a discussion face to face. You're not the best model of that (would you really tell me to give it a rest, to my face, if I'd said what I posted out loud? gosh I hope not...) and I personally have been guilty of being harsher on here than I would be in person. Mea culpa. But there is absolutely no reason to think that the crazies who post on DCUM - be they nannies or not - have any impact at all on anyone's view of nannies as a whole. We have much bigger fish to fry if your concern is how nannies are viewed in general (we might begin with education, certifications, flexibility, cell phone usage, socializing on the clock...).

The behavior OP is addressing is not unique to nannies on this forum, or even the nanny forum in general. Have you read anything in the main forum? Its often much worse than over here.
