[quote=Anonymous]With any toddler who is "a handful" and a parent who won't teach the child self-discipline (parenting, who knew?!), the nanny stepping in to the role has a rough road. It's a balancing act between teaching the child to control him or herself and going too fast. With a young child, it's easier to relax rules and enforcement later while starting out stricter. I've been told several times that I'm a little harsh initially (told by other nannies, not parents), but I always clear it with the parents first, so that they know how I will handle the situation. If I'm not given the opportunity to handle an out-of-control child (within reasonable parameters) as I see fit, I don't take the position.[/quote]
