[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mix it too unless the white clothes are new. What's the problem??? [/quote] We bleach whites (mostly shirts and towels) and we run them in hot water. I hate the look of tinted and stained white clothing. That doesn't bother you pp? We wash colored in warm water and rinse with cold. [/quote]. I use oxyclean for stains, but it has truly never occurred to me to be that concernwd about the whiteness of my whites. I also don't wear much white and can't imagine a child's wardrobe with a lot of white clothing.[/quote] This. Maybe I'll care when I have an older toddler that gets messier. I've mixed all mine for years and cold only except the sheets and towels (those are separate). Yes sometimes the white towels get a little faded. But they're towels and we replace them eventually and save the old ones for extra or messy things. I oxyclean stains too. Clothes come out clean from the cold wash. They have much better detergents now specifically made for cold water. [/quote] Every Folkes different Strokes! Whites (esp towels) get washed in hot water and bleach. I don't care how you wash them in your house. The nanny is not doing me a favor by doing laundry because it's part of HER job description. [/quote] Okay, but the title of you post is "Why? Why? Why?" It would appear that the answer is that many, many people wash clothes just as your nanny was doing. So why not just explain that you have a very soecific way you want clothes done and ask her to comply rather than theowing a tantrum on the internet?[/quote]
