[quote=Anonymous]I do not know where some of these respondents live at, but where I live at, most of our indoor malls are not only air-conditioned they are also geared toward young children. They offer full-sized merry go rounds, kid sized trains (complete w/a costumed conductor who says "All aboard" upon boarding!) as well as a huge play area w/fun + unique play equipment so the parents can rest their feet after hours of shopping. The person who responded that the OP only wanted to visit a mall so she could shop is simply uneducated and quite ignorant in my opinion. OP, as a mother who employs a nanny I must say that I think your boss is making a huge mistake that I see many mothers make. She is putting her own wants/desires in front of her child's and it is only hurting her child in the long run. By having a nanny with so many restrictions, she is ensuring an unhappy nanny (who wouldn't be?!) and a nanny who isn't one hundred percent happy in her job is never a good thing especially when there are children involved. Your job is very low paying. For any part of the country, I am sorry to say. That is peanuts. You can find something much better than a twelve dollar an hour job. I pay my teenage neighbor much more than that. Also, you can find a family who will won't be so selfish as to only give you limited mobility to take the child. To only offer you two outdoor venues to go to is just ludicrous in my opinion. And the fact that there is no outdoor space and you have to spend the whole day indoors would drive me stir crazy. Even with play-doh, puzzles, arts & crafts, etc., that poor little boy is going to get bored and restless. A two year old needs a change of scenery and needs stimulation. He needs to get out and about and out of the house. If he can only go to the same park and the same library he will get pretty antsy after awhile. Shame on his mom for being such a selfish parent. This seriously sounds like a job from hell. It is your call, but I would leave. [/quote]
