[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do these women not remember their childhoods? I just have a hard time believing many of the MBs we deal with had  caregivers ( who in reality were probably their grandmothers, neighbors, or daycare providers) who sat on the floor all day and "played" with them.

My charges are 3 and 1. We play,  but 80% of their day they play with each other, themselves, or other kids. They are the smartest, most well behaved children I know. [/quote]

I remember my childhood (MB here). It involved going all over the city with my nanny. Eating dinner while my mother got dressed to go out. My nannies absolutely DID play with me on a regular basis. No cell phones then unless you were a drug dealer, just beepers by the time I was aging out of needing a nanny. [/quote]

Can I ask a question of the PP who went out with her nanny all the time- I'm just curious and don't have many people to ask.  I'm a WOH parent and I admit I do have mommy guilt sometimes.  How did your upbringing affect your relationship with your mother?  I realize there are a lot of factors involved but it sounds from your post that you spent a lot of time with your nanny and I wonder what kind of relationship adults who spent a lot of time in daycare or with nannies had and currently have with their parents.  Just curious.  [/quote]
