[quote=Anonymous][quote]I LOVE my MB! She's a great mom and a great boss. Now here's my issue:
All four of my charges act up like crazy the second she walks in the door. It's not only totally unacceptable behavior, but it makes it impossible for MB and i to do the chatting we need to do at the end of the day (yes, we have a log but there's always stuff we still need to talk about). I suggested we start a sticker chart for good behavior during this time and MB suggested we use it all time. So I got the kids excited, picked out prizes, and made up some awesome charts today. Then this evening, I get a text from her thanking me for them and telling me what she gave the kids stickers for. The problem is, instead of a reward for good behavior, she's using them as a bribe. Like, "if you stop throwing a fit and go back into gymnastics, you can have three stickers on your chart." While I do realize she is their mother and can give them whatever she damn pleases, I feel like since we're both using these charts with the kids, they will not be as effective when used this way. [b]I totally love and respect my MB and don't want to cause any tension or make her feel bad. I understand that a working mother of 4 needs to bribe her kids as a survival technique, I just wish it didn't meddle with my nanny style.[/b] Should I say anything or just do the chart my way and let her do it her way?

No. You don't respect, love or understand your MB. You judge her. Own it. [/quote]
