The nanny loves to give books as a gift to DC. However, whenever she gives a regular book (never on a board book) she writes "To Larla, With love, Nanny". Half of DC's "library" has this nanny's name on it!
Why does she do this? Is it so DC will always remember her? Pisses me off. |
| They are books she has given him. I love it when people write little notes when they gift books to me. What is wrong with your child remembering her? If she is a bad nanny then fire her, but if she isn't I think it's really sweet. If it bothers you THAT much then just get rid of the books when your nanny moves on. Although that may be soon considering the way you sound. |
| Many people do this. Presumably because they want to be remembered by the recipient. If you had a book inscribed by A. Lincoln or anyone famous then you would not be complaining, would you? It is her gift to him and she has every right to do so. Maybe someday you will have a real problem! |
| This is what I was taught to do by my very polite and well-bred parents. Always inscribe a gift book. Your nanny has more class than you do, OP. |
| You're an ass, OP. |
| Poor nanny what a shit boss |
| This can't be for real. |
| Everyone wants to be remembered by someone they love. Feel incredibly lucky that your child has a loving nanny who believes in reading/books. |
Not enough action in the nanny forum so someone's trying to get people riled up. |
Agreed. Bored nanny. |
| Another poster who was taught that all gift books are inscribed. |
| I always inscribe a book that I give as a gift. |
| very thoughtful |
| I call troll. I would never be upset by this, even if I didn't particularly care for the nanny in question, and can't imagine this OP is either. Just trying to stir up trouble. |

LOL
My adult friends do this too. It's considered polite. |
