[quote=Anonymous]My employers leave their twenty-one-month-old child with her grandmother about once a week for a few hours.  The grandmother has demanded this alone time with my charge and my employers have given in to her demands.  However I have been with the grandmother and the child and the grandmother is incapable of taking care of her.  The grandmother has "memory issues" and I think it is getting worse.  The bottom line is that I do not think my charge is safe in the grandmother's care.  There is a housekeeper around for most of the visit but I still don't think it is enough.

I have told my employers in no uncertain terms that the grandmother is not capable of caring for my charge alone.  I have offered to take me charge free of charge for those hours when I am available (but I am not always available).  And have offered to drive my charge over to the grandmother's house and stay with them (the grandmother nixed that as my charge doesn't pay enough attention to the grandmother if I am there).  My employers want to keep the peace in their family - and I understand that - but I am honestly worried about my charge's life.

What else can I do?
