[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is good for your kids when I'm at work is still good for them when you're at home. What is bad for them when I'm at work is still bad when you're at home. Now is it your right to relax the rules when you're home. Sure it is. But you should be honest with yourself that it is because you don't have the energy to be on 100% of the time, and you should be able to understand that neither does your nanny. [/quote]

BS.  I am on 100% of the time that I am at work.  After working a full day, I need to make dinner, manage the house, reconnect with my husband, check in with ageing parents, etc.  I may not have enough energy left to be 100% on with my kids.  That makes me sad, but it is reality for working parents.  Also reality: being with my kids is your job, and you should be as 100% on during your work hours as I have to be during mine.  Yes, that means that I expect you to put more energy into taking care of my kids during the workday than I put into it in the two hours I get with them before bedtime.      [/quote]
