[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this is a stupid reason to get rid of someone and I say that as a Mom and a former Nanny.
I got in a minor accident when I was a Nanny, The kids were 1 and 3 and were in the car. They were both arguing with each other and screaming and I couldnt concentrate, I turned around for a second to tell them to be quiet and I sideswiped a parked car. Totally my fault but I wasn't being deliberately negligent. I worked for that family for 7 happy years and never got in another accident.[/quote]

That's great and all but that's really dangerous. Actually pretty common for fatal car accidents when the car crosses to the oncoming traffic. Taking your eyes off the road like that is a big, big no no. To me it's the same as looking down at your phone while driving. If you're distracted to the point you are having trouble concentrating on your driving, pull over!    If I had gotten into the accident you described, I would have understood if my nanny family fired me. [/quote]
