[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can't have it both ways OP. You're mad about all the time she's had off, you're behind at work and wanted her to come in. She came in. She's sick. Give her a break. Take a look at all the threads in the archives where MBs rant about nannies wanting a sick day for every little thing and how they'd rather they come in, but take it easy. Figure out what you want and communicate it, because right now she's basically damned if she does and damned if she doesn't. [/quote]

I would have preferred that she just tell me that she was too sick to care for my child, so that I could have arranged for back up care.  But I totally admit that I didn't specifically communicate that to her, so I think I'll do that today.

I do feel bad that I'm getting annoyed, because I know it's not her fault.   At the same time, I feel like she could still let my child do more than watch tv all day long, even if she is sick.  No matter how sick I am, I still have to work and take care of our child, and not just let her sit in front of a tv ALL day.  A couple hours, ok.  But all day?  I'd be happier if she could just go lay down on the couch, and let my kid play with some toys.  But she is a little rigid in some regards, particularly with letting my kid do her own thing.[/quote]
