[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hope that OP is still reading this thread.  Go up four posts at 4/10 - 14:43 and see exactly what you avoided in hiring an older nanny.  [b]Two people politely disagree with this young nanny and she resorts to name calling and a threat. [/b] Can you imagine how she is with her MB/DB is they dare disagree with her?!

You made a good choice, OP, in hiring an older nanny - especially a nanny with the resume that your nanny has.  [/quote]

There was no threat, and the older "drama-free" nannies were name calling first.

 It's noting personal, Dear, you will be older soon and will understand what we are talking about. [/quote]

"Dear" was clearly used in a derogatory sense in that post. [/quote]

Thank you. If you read my earlier exchange with those posters, I attempted to respectfully disagree with them on a few premises, and every time I was patronizingly dismissed. It's really no skin off my back if you allow your prejudices to potentially rob your children of the woman who is perfect for your family. Their need to continue to argue their points so ardently, and to attack my opinions and character days after I have left the thread, speaks to a greater insecurity of those older nannies regarding their value and of the MBs and their prejudices. Everyone wants to believe they've made the best possible choice, and for those insecure in their choice, they feel the need to downplay the differing choices of others. [/quote]

You're welcome. I really liked your color analogy. It's unfortunate that some people have had poor experiences with younger nannies, but that doesn't mean we're all that way! [/quote]
