[quote=Anonymous]I started a new nanny position about a month ago, two charges, 13 and 12. Last week, I was driving them to sport practice when I was rear ended. Traffic slowed so I slowed with it, unfortunately the man behind me was distracted and hit my car. He admitted full fault. Luckily, he was driving slow and it wasn't a hard impact. I made sure the kids were okay and got out of the car to talk to the man, take pictures, etc. At that point, we were down the street from the baseball field. One of the boys kept insisting that he would just walk the rest of the way because he didn't want to miss practice, and I repeatedly rtold him absolutely not while dealing with the situation. He then ran off and went to the field. I hurriedly had to finish up with the man and drive to the field. At that point, I called MB. She freaked, she said their last nanny was with them for years and this never happened, and that this has never happened with them either, what was I thinking? Was I not paying attention? She was yelling and being extremely rude, even after I told her it was a small accident and that I was completely not at fault. When we got back home, her and DB got there. DB was much more sympathetic, and while she had calmed down, she simply said, "You need to do better defensive driving." 
I don't know how to feel about this family now, I was humiliated with the way MB treated me. Any thoughts on whether this is a bad sign or should I just give this position more time? (I was using my personal car-btw)[/quote]
