[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again. It would be like me lying that I took my charge to an educational museum when I would be taking her to the zoo because I feel guilty she won't be having fun or other guilt reasons. I would get fired. It makes me rethink the family I work for and if I can trust her anymore. [/quote]

That's a ridiculous analogy. You are required to let a parent know where you take their child. Because it's THEIR CHILD. A parent is not required to tell you where they are! Because they are an adult! Most parents have cell phones so they could be giving blow jobs in a corner alley and as long as they answer their phone when you call, it shouldn't matter to you what they're doing. [/quote]

Once again, stop trying to make the issue about what she is doing. Its not. It is about the LYING. Why is that so hard to understand. It doesn't matter what the hell her MB is doing. It matters that she thinks its okay to tell her something that isn't true. Is it okay for a nanny to call in sick, when she actually just wanted to take a long weekend? The backlash on this board against mental health days has been almost unanimous from MBs. Lying is lying, and it has no place in a relationship requiring any level of trust. A nanny trusts you with her paycheck, with her welfare, with her personal information, with her safety in your home, with her reputation, and on and on. Showing that you think its okay to skirt the truth when it suits you will degrade that trust. It leads her to question you. It leads her to question your relationship. And since some of you can only see things from a selfish point of view, it may lead her to think you are okay with white lies and she could start fibbing to you when it benefits her. I'm sure then lying for any reason and with any justification on the part of a nanny would be deemed a high crime. [/quote]
