[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone think it is telling that the nanny revisited the bamboo and cut up OP’s rope right after OP reminded her NOT to repeat the incident of 1.5 weeks ago? Like she was showing OP that she was going to do her job her way, regardless of what OP and DH thought? [/quote]

OP here. She doesn't have an attitude at all, so I can't imagine this was her intent. She is very kind and acts loving toward my children and is friendly with us. Just seemed clueless in these instances, which isn't a good thing either.[/quote]

[b]But why that very afternoon?[/b] Unless she is not understanding you at all, she would want to steer clear of upsetting you by cutting anything new. [/quote]

NP. My guess? The boy was being very persistent about wanting to build with the bamboo, possibly even crying about it or having a fit, and she just wanted it to stop. She didn't think very hard, and looked in the garage finding the first thing she saw that would work. I suspect cutting the bamboo has a similar back story.

This is what would concern me; she may be very loving, but she may also not have the skills or patience needed to deal with older children who are not easily distracted. If her go-to is to give in and do what they want, there will be more of these misjudgments.[/quote]
