[quote=Anonymous]It's not even about working yourself to the bone. People who hire nannies for 60 plus hours per week, you could argue are doing so to alleviate some pressure on themselves. Say they work 59 hours themselves, and have the nanny stay for an extra hour or two so they can make dinner in peace or even simply unwind from a long day before taking over in the evening. That is avoiding working yourself to the bone. But, assuming there are no extenuating circumstances like the PPs have mentioned, 24/7 care goes beyond not wanting to overwork yourself. You're handing off the primary caregiver role to another person. Your children take a backseat to your job, your schedule, your activities, etc. Why the hell have kids, if those other things are so much more important?[/quote]
