[quote=Anonymous]Our DS is 2.5 and we've had our nanny for 2 years.  We generally love her, but I've seen something twice recently that has annoyed me.

Nanny was holding DS, and DS was pinching her.  She was laughing and pretending it was a game, saying "owie!", and he kept pinching.  He was laughing along too like it was really funny.  A similar situation happened a couple weeks ago while he was trying to hit her.  She was sort of dodging it making a game out of it.

It seemed to "work" in that my DS wasn't upset and clearly the nanny didn't seem upset.

But we don't allow DS to hit or pinch.  We always hold his arm and tell him "no hitting" and if it continues we put him down and walk away.  I don't want him to think that hitting or pinching is a game to play.

I am always REALLY reluctant to bring things up with our nanny because overall she's outstanding, and I generally think it's good that we are different and don't "parent" the exact same way.  Not sure if this is worth mentioning though.
