[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a MB, I’ll say it is difficult on a sensitive employer to have someone be so needy and in love with your children when you don’t love them in return (nothing personal, just hard to love someone with this kind of relationship at play). Don’t put so much emotional weight on a work situation. You can do a good job and enjoy it without being too emotionally entrenched. In no other field are the workers so entitled to relationships and love. Have some professional distance. The door swings both ways and I know that if I couldn’t pay you, you would not be in my life very often if at all. Why should I allow you access to my children forever or even say you are part of the family? [/quote]

Here you have it. You MB are the reason why OP feels the way she feels. Why allow the nanny access to your kids? Because it’s the humane thing to do. You are obviously selfish. There are nannies out there who don’t give a s about their charges, and there are nannies who love them beyond anything. Which nanny would you prefer to have? One that comes for the money, or one that loves your child. I’ve worked for these rich moms before, and it just breaks my heart what I see. 
And what does “in no other field are workers entitled to relationships and love”
Hmmmm....maybe because no other field deals with young children. If I clean your house, I don’t care if I miss a dirty spot or break a vase. If I work in retail I don’t care if I drop some clothes, lawyers don’t care if they mess up their clients. 
But as a nanny I don’t have a choice, I cannot mess up to begin with. Go to the mirror and look into your own eyes and tell yourself that you are anything but nice. Thank you[/quote]
You are a beautiful person![/quote]
