[quote=Anonymous]I have a nanny, who's been helping us out while on regular nanny takes maternity leave. Unexpectedly our FT nanny had to go to on bed rest, with these unforeseen circumstances, we hired a nanny through the agency we hired our FT from. She is great with kids, but sometimes has a tendency to be a smart alec, when talking to our kids, and once to me. Maybe, I don't find it humorous, or I'm rigid, but I find it rude and condescending. I do think having humor is important, but there is a time and place. My kids are 5 and 7. MBs or nannies, what is your point of view on this? My brother-in-law is a wise guy, and he is well liked and he is laid back, and is charming but he is also not teaching kids about manners either, and sometimes he can be crass. While he can go and be as mouthy, I don't know why the temp nanny thinks it's OK. Maybe it's just how she grew up, but I don't want my kids to learn to be mouthy. [/quote]
