[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ugh - it doesn't make you a bad person but if you were my nanny and you couldn't reflexively say (to yourself and or an anonymous board) "YES! I love them. They charm the bejeezus out of me!" I don't think I'd want you as my kids' nanny.[/quote]

Seriously?  They do "charm the bejeezus out of me".  I think they're hilarious and intelligent kids.  When they go on vacation, I miss them.  If I had to give my life for theirs, I absolutely would.  There is a BOND there.  It is not my definition of love.  But there is an undeniable bond there.  Is that not enough?[/quote]

There is nothing wrong with what you said OP.. That commenter would rather have you pretend to 'love' her kids. Most nannies don't truly love their charges. They care about them and might even have a bond with them but love? Only in certain circumstances. Like a nanny caring for a child since birth til age 10 or something. Again.. There will be grinches on these boards picking at little things. Ignore them.[/quote]
