[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]22:39, just imagine two adults who stare at you all day. Lovely, isn't it? At some point you might wonder what's wrong with them. But maybe not.[/quote]

It has not been my experience that having two adults in a room with a child means they are both just sitting there staring at the child doing nothing else all day ...  I really can't imagine it actually.  [/quote]
BINGO!
You finally got it. At least one of them is focused on something else. Whew![/quote]

Actually, I am genuinely confused.  You can have two adults sitting in a room engaging a child or playing a game together.   That is not harmful nor is it two adults sitting there just staring at a child.  More importantly, I'm not sure what that has to do with your initial point that having a parent and a nanny there at the same time is harmful?   [/quote]
Just do what you want. I was once hired to do babycare, so I thought. As it turned out, mb hung with me and baby ALL day, EVERY day. No joke. They had a full cleaning crew, so nothing for either one of us to do, but make small talk and stare at the newborn. Even though the pay was sky high, I still left. What professional would put up with that nonsense? At the time, I wasn't prepared to be her therapist.[/quote]

It's absolutely fair that that may not have been the job for you but I was responding to the statement that it was harmful to the child.  How on earth is it harmful?[/quote]
It was a job for a "companion", don't you think?[/quote]

Again, the job may not have been for you.  That is totally fair.  You are always free to accept or decline a job that doesn't work for you.  But how is it harmful to the child?  You not liking the job is very different from the parameters of the job harming the child, which they do not.[/quote]
