[quote=Anonymous]I would think this means that you need to be more interactive with the kids and have/show a general interest in them. You say they are manipulative. Do you genuinely love them? You can't fake that kind of thing with kids. If you aren't crazy about them this either isn't the family or the field for you. I get that you have another job, school, personal life, etc, but frankly as a MB that doesn't occur during the time I'm paying for. Thus, your mind shouldn't (obviously) be there either. That comes back to the being on the bus looking distracted example. If you were in transit on the way to a business meeting with your colleauges you wouldn't mentally tune-out, and it's the same with your nanny job. You should be interacting or at least "there" to respond appropriately and enthusiastically when the kids you are with want to engage. [/quote]
