[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I honestly can't believe that there are three pages of people mainly defending a parents right to spank. Your children are still human beings with rights of their own, perhaps not legally, but certainly on a basic level. Spanking is hitting, it is not less abusive because it is on the butt rather than a slap in the face or a twist of the arm. If you can not get your own anger in check, you have no business being around children. Hitting is not discipline, it is lazy, mean, and detrimental to children in so many ways. [/quote] This thread isn't whether or not to spank. It's about where the parameters of the nanny's responsibilities and authority lie and what she chooses to do about it. Debating spanking here is as useful as debating breastfeeding, SAHM vs. WOHM, hiring legal nannies, etc... But the OP wanted to know what she should do about the conflict and how to discuss it w/ the parents. That's a valid discussion for this forum.[/quote] I was addressing the responses that basically said it is the parent's right to decide if they want to spank or not. No, perhaps this is not what the OP was addressing (though DCUM forums NEVER go off topic, I know) but it was a sentiment that I felt strongly about expressing. OP is, IMO, right to disagree with her employers on the issue of spanking their child, and perhaps they could get their heads out of their own asses for long enough to realize that their way is not the best just because they are the parents. [/quote] Excellent points.[/quote]
