[quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately agree with everyone else. Even the sweetest and nicest kids can be unappreciative at times. I LOVE the two children for which I nanny. However, when I took them to play at a park that they both loved this week and asked them if they had fun when we left the older girl replied "Kind of but not as much as I thought I would have because it was so hot and tiring." haha. Sometimes you just have to learn to brush these things off. It doesn't mean that they didn't have fun. I would do like other people said and ask them specific questions like "How did you feel about doing this?" "Did you like when we did this?" "Wasn't doing ____ fun?" And of course you can always do the classic "What do you guys say?" after you do something and hope they pick up and say Thank you and then maybe they will turn it into a habit after you remind them enough times.[/quote]
