[quote=Anonymous]Google "Manufacturing Motherhood". There's fascinating research on a PDF at the Harvard.edu link. I am sharing the above research in response to the snark comments by mothers on the "MB's how do you feel leaving a beloved nanny behind?" thread. A nanny is clearly traumatized by the sudden announcement by her "nanny family" that they are soon moving far away for a new job. This comes in spite of the fact that the Nanny has moved to be geographically closer to the family. Many Nannies continue to dedicate their lives to their work, while the parents typically have little of no commitment to the Nanny. Why?[/quote]
