[quote=Anonymous]I'm an MB. I'm totally comfortable with our nanny, who is utterly beloved by our kids. I'm not threatened by that at all. But if I were a FTM, and insecure or nervous in my role, and conflicted about working vs staying at home, etc.... might be a very different story. If the mother is in tears at the declarations of the child (a big if) then there is a problem. An insecure mother might feel threatened and therefore could turn on a nanny who was fostering the kind of behavior OP is describing. I think there is potential job risk in this scenario. I also don't think the behaviors described are particularly good for the nanny or child either. I want my kids to be happy when the nanny gets there, happy when I get home, be unflappable at the transitions in between, etc... Tears and scenes and emotional drama are unnecessary and unhealthy IMO.[/quote]
