[quote=Anonymous]Sorry, but the fact that a typical nanny spends more time with her charges than the typical working parent does not make nanny the primary caregiver, any more than working long hours makes a corporate administrative assistant the primary force behind the company she works for. With very few exceptions, the parents are primary, even if they spend two hours a day with the kids while the nanny spends ten. It is the parents who must develop and be mindful of the big-picture goals and developmental vision at all times from birth through adulthood. The nanny just administers pieces of that vision during her period of employment. If you doubt this, explain to me why kids recover just fine from a change in nanny, but fare much worse following loss of a parent to divorce or death.[/quote]
