[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The worst abuse I ever heard of was an Orthodox Jewish family who refused to allow their non-Jewish nanny to eat or tough any of their food and also refused to allow her to bring any food into the house for fear it was not kosher. She was an undocumented worker who went eleven to twelve hours a day with nothing to eat. [/quote] That is indeed horrific. I would, however, as a professional nanny, mother, and former Montgomery County resident, like to express my sincere gratitude to the many Jewish women (including many attorneys) who fought long and hard to pass the domestic workers' right law in Montgomery County. (I believe many were JCC members.) I was on West Coast when I heard about it, and my heart sang with joy. All of us on this forum should be deeply indebted to them for their unpaid work towards justice. Now let's see how we can accomplish something similar in the rest of the DC area. Anyone interested?
