[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You're right- that is a horrible thing for mom to say to her kids.  HOWEVER, living everyday with an Autistic child (or any disabled child) is very overwhelming and a total life changer.  And some people just aren't as naturally patient as others, as much as they try (myself included).

So, either quit, or try to be empathetic and (if you are willing) see if she wants you to work extra, maybe a weeknight or weekend (for extra money of course) to give her more of a break that she's begging for.

Being a working parent of multiple children or a disabled child is very, very stressful and leaves you 0 time to unwind and recharge.  
As my good friend just said- I feel like I just work to pay the mortgage and for everyone else to live a life, but none for me.  [/quote]

There are people that shouldn't be parents. The op doesn't have to quit or be empathetic towards her mb as you suggested, she just wanted to vent about her careless mb.

From the sounds of it her mb isn't very maternal and just looks for reasons to not be doing something of quality with her own kids. Op has a right to make that observation and vent about it.[/quote]

No one really gets what it's like to be a parent until they become one. And you have even less idea what it would be like to have a special needs child, particularly if you have one with substantial needs. Now that I have kids, I m very, very thankful that we have the money to make sure that even if one of my kids suddenly needed significant care, I wouldn't have to do it ll the time, because I have learned that I am not a patient person. Before we had kids, I would have told you I was great in a crisis and very go-with-the-flow. I had no idea how relentless parenting is.

This mom needs counseling.[/quote]

It is so condescending for mbs to run into threads where nannies are expressing themselves to hurry and call them names and judge them.  Its laughable that mbs like to try and convince the women that are actually raising their kids during their WAKE hours before dinner bath and bed (and  a lot of nannies do that part too) that they have no idea what its like to be a parent. Especially to the kids they nanny for. Just like compassion is being called for this mother in the OP compassion can be used for this nanny that has to deal with it also[/quote]

+ a million. The hypocrisy is unreal. OP you're entitled to feel however you want to feel about your MB so long as you keep doing your job. My MB is a total bitch too. Not to her kid  but to me. She talks to me constantly about personal things that I don't care about, but then nickels and dimes me to save herself a buck. People complain about their employers. Get over it MBs. [/quote]
