[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it is a very unfair position to have you in a position where a Male (her husband) has all-day video + audio access to you. You just met him, barely know him yet are expected to give your consent for him to watch & listen to you anytime he wants to. This is just sick. Ask the Mom if she could just have access to the footage. Let the Mom know your concerns and I am sure she will understand completely. No one would feel comfortable w/a stranger Male having video/sound access to a brand new Woman in the house. Especially today w/the current #metoo movement going on. It’s best for the man to not be involved in watching a stranger who is Female. Err on the side of caution. ALWAYS!! Plus these cameras get hacked just like computers and it could be some creepy, pedophile watching the Nanny from across the street. Security is the biggest issue in not setting up home cameras.[/quote] This is weirdly sexist reasoning, the same kind used in stricter middle eastern countries to justify why women need to be covered up in public, not allowed to work outside the home, escorted by a male guardian, etc. because men are perverted and not to be trusted, and it would be sick if a woman had to touch a strange man (jostled in public transport, shaking hands on a business meeting) What would be sick is if your landlord wanted to record you for “security purposes”... that is YOUR HOME. What is not sick if is your employer wants to record you at work... it may be A HOME but not YOUR HOME. What are you doing at work with a young child that is so private it would be sick to watch, besides the bathroom (where I agree no cameras should be allowed in any workplace)? Families who CHOOSE to have a nanny give up quite a bit of privacy... a nanny can pick up a lot about the family’s personal matters just from overhearing and seeing things around the house. She probably knows much more than the neighbors and possibly even more than grandparents about the family’s financial and medical situation, family planning, and so on. A person who CHOOSES to work in someone else’s house has to give up some privacy as well. [/quote]
