[quote=Anonymous]"The debate is about reduced pay, not which child you personally feel is easier. " no, that's not right. it's about whether you still need to give a raise when the workload decreases by 1 child going off to school FT. I don't recall seeing anyone recently ask if it was ok to dock the nanny's pay. Normally when that question is asked, it is almost universally met with "no - your nanny will hate you for that" which is reasonable in my view. The current argument seems to be that a nanny STILL deserves normal raises even if she's going to be working less hard due to moving to 1 kid most of the time. People justifying that seem to be saying that it's reasonable because the laundry and lunch packing and school holidays mean that you are still basically taking care of 2 kids. I just think that's nuts to suggest that it's not way easier to have 1 school age kid and 1 preschooler vs. 2 still at home. That doesn't match my parenting experience at all. [/quote]
