[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From the responses received here, it is obvious that people are either for or against something which most certainly clouds their judgement.

I am a nanny who also brings her lunch to work. My employers are Muslims and do not eat meat. However I cannot even fathom what kind of lunch I would bring that didn't contain some meat. Primarily my sandwiches since I do not like cheese or PB & J, etc. While my boss is against killing animals for human consumption on a personal level, she allows me to bring turkey or chicken sandwiches to work. Trust me, her 6 + 8 yr old sons do not sit at the table salivating over my lunch. They happily eat their spicy rice dishes and could care less what the hell I am eating.

For this woman to actually think her kids will be affected by a nanny who munches on Cheetos or Pringles or whatever, etc. is just ludicrous. Kids could care less what their nanny eats. As long as they have their lunches in front of them, they are good. If a child asks about the nanny's lunch, all she has to say is "This is Nanny's lunch and that is your lunch," and leave it at that.

Honestly, in all of my years of working as a private nanny, all of the children who came from homes where healthy eating is strictly enforced already know they are not allowed to eat someone else's food w/out permission from their parents.
I have never seen a child ask their parents for something just because they have seen their nanny eat it.

Y'all are so clueless about children here. Honestly.

No one has a right to tell anyone else what he or she should eat.
To the person who compared someone eating at will to someone committing a crime, your logic is so flawed I won't even try to wrap my head around it.

Some families are against gay marriage for religious/cultural reasons. However, it would be illegal and unethical for them to tell their nanny to "please" not wear a rainbow/pride shirt to work since they don't want their child to be gay.

Focus everyone on the issue here. Power and control. A 37-yr old woman has already been raised by her parents.

So what if she wants to eat Bologna? How does that make her less of a role model for a child? So what if she pierced her tongue over the weekend? Does that mean the child will start asking to pierce her tongue next??

Your responses were very comical. And truthfully....quite uneducated and flawed.

We are supposed to stay on topic.
If you want to debate healthy eating and hugging trees, go to the off-topic section thread.

This is a thread about nannying.[/quote]

This has to be the most self righteous and pretentious response of the bunch.   Good for you!   But you may want to fact check a coupe of your statements.  [/quote]

Nah, the poster actually was very on point.[/quote]
