[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Move on now. No child should fear a caregiver. They should love and adore her. [/quote]

14.57 here.  I disagree.  I've had charges who didn't adore me because they constantly pushed boundaries and I wouldn't put up with it.  They knew I loved them and wasn't going to walk, but they had to see how far they could go.  Both parents had divorced, both had remarried, both had divorced again, mom was on her third marriage.  I was the fifth nanny, so I knew going in that kids had attachment issues, and the parents were upfront about the behavior issues.  I've had other charges who had behavior issues, but no attachment issues, and they didn't adore me either.  Yes, they finally loved me, but it didn't come easily to any of them.

The only kids who are likely to love and adore the nanny are the ones who never get in trouble, are young enough that she's the only nanny they've had (or the only one they remember), and the ones who think of her as a part of the family.[/quote]
