[quote=Anonymous]OP here, Thanks for all of the helpful responses. I have had some time to think it over as have the kids. The kids wrote the nanny apology cards yesterday and we have some strategies in place to help make today be successful- including consequences and limits. The kids know they are supposed to speak respectfully, but like any human being they make mistakes. I do wish the nanny had corrected them the first time this happened vs. waiting until things imploded. I think when kids are acting out like that they are ASKING for a limit to be set. The nanny may be young and less assertive at times, but you should see the way she plays and talks with them. No, she is not perfect and neither are my kids but for the most part we have had a great summer. That is why yesterday was really upsetting for everyone. In any case, the summer is ending soon. I have a lot to think about and I know one goal is to help them build frustration tolerance and empathy for others.[/quote]
