There's a difference between legal and illegal immigration. I think the perceived prejudice is more towards the questionable illegal immigration.

Well no, you have a poster who thinks she has an edge over other applicants because her high school record is easy to check vs. someone who went to school in Manila.

You don't consider your nanny's education relevant?

The question is, how do you even know she graduated high school. You seem patheticly ignorant.

Lovely, the pp attempts an insult, and then fails in her spelling of "pathetically." MB here. I actual don't care about high school. My family and my husband's family have lived all over the world, and when looking for a nanny for an infant to a toddler, I could care less where the individual went to high school, let alone if she graduated, as long as she can read, is intelligent, and is interested in the world around her. I look for people who are loving, curious, flexible, non-dogmatic when it comes to child-rearing, and empathetic ... and those qualities don't always track well to formal education, particularly if the person was raised abroad. The elitism on this board is bizarre. And this is coming from a 1%'er family.

Ditto every single word of this (except having lived all over the world.)

Many of the qualities specified here (with which I fully agree) also don't track well to Americans. We are a self-righteous, entitled bunch.

Can't speak to the suburbs. Hope that helps!
