[quote=Anonymous]Why would I hire a nanny who had any sort of arrest on her record? So what if twenty years ago, an applicant has an arrest on her record and I ask her what it was for? Then she responds that she was protesting at an "Anti-abortion" rally and was boycotting Planned Parenthood. Do you really think that arrest is less serious than a drug possession arrest, a domestic violence arrest or a jaywalking arrest? No way. An arrest is a red flag. It shows that you are too immature to accept the laws of the land, that you think you are superior to authority and that you have too much pride. So any nanny with an arrest on her record, even for disturbing the peace is not going to get a job caring for my child. Because I will always wonder what her mindset will be in the event that she will need to take direction from someone she doesn't agree with. Will she lose her temper? I want a role model for my child. Look at all the celebrities who have arrests. Paris Hilton, Kloe Kardashian, Reese Witherspoon, Mel Gibson, Alex Baldwin, etc. There is no way any of these people should ever be entrusted to care for kids.[/quote]
