[quote=Anonymous]I had a brief chat with DB Monday about how our day went. He works from home and came down mid day to play with DC who is 6 months. We are in a nanny share. DB played with his baby and seemed to be having fun so I did not mind the interruption. But, every time the other baby came anywhere near them he picked up his child and moved to another area of the room, completely ignoring DC2. DC2 is not yet a year old and kept crawling after them trying to play along. Despite my best efforts at distraction DC 2 was eager to engage him. Finally, I took DC2 to another part of the house entirely as DB was obviously wanting to play solo with DC1.

At the end of the day he told me he is worried I am not able to keep the kids entertained and that DC2 seemed bored with my company. I was really shocked. It hurt my feelings to see DC2 rejected every time he would abruptly pick up his baby and move away. It took me a few minutes to accept that his behavior was intentional as it seemed too mean a thing to do to a child seeking acceptance. So, At first I sat back thinking she would be welcome to play along and I would lend support in case he got overwhelmed.

Should I address this on Monday? Let it go unless it comes up again? Tell the other parents how their child was treated? Should I address his accusation but let go my judgement about his behavior toward DC2?[/quote]
