[quote=Anonymous]I have been a nanny for the same family for 7 years. Over this time, I supervised play dates at their house and take the kids to other houses/parks/whatever for play dates. A few weeks ago, the family I work for and some other families went on a camping trip- I went with them. Everyone was around the campfire and I went to grab something from my tent and a father of another child was back by the tents with his 4 year old and he didn't see me there- he slapped her across the face-HARD- because she got marshmallows in her hair. SHE IS FOUR. I went back and finished the trip as if nothing had happened. Immediately told MB what I saw when we get back. She too was horrified. I told her I wasn't comfortable going to this other families house for play dates/didn't want to drive their daughters over for play dates anymore (sometimes I pick up her daughter and the other family's daughter and then supervise a play date). MB said ok, she understands. Fast forward a few weeks, MB tells me she scheduled play date with this family and I am to watch both kids then the other little girls dad (the one who slapped his 4 year old) will pick up his daughter in the afternoon. she leaves for work- I do as she asked but I am uncomfortable around this child-smacker! I don't want to be around him or put my charges around him! Am I over reacting? Can I tell her again I'm not comfortable with this?[/quote]
