[quote=Anonymous]I disagree that just because a woman may feel uncomfortable being viewed daily by another man that it is her own fault due to her “choosing” to be a Nanny. In order for some people to go to work every day, support their families & make a living, they require a Nanny in the home. Not everyone agrees that infants should thrive in an in-home daycare. Yes, as technology is playing a larger + larger role in our everyday, it comes as no surprised that we are being filmed the more we venture out in public. Yet two differences exist for the sake of this issue: • When being filmed in public, we are likely not the sole focus of the person watching. It is oftentimes in a group w/other people. • Women by nature tend to feel a bit more protected of themselves around men, especially men they just met. Sure.... Call it blatant sexism. Whatever. But it is just how the genders differ. Ask any woman. To be in a private home all day, to be the primary focus of the camera’s owner, to not only be recorded on video....but also on audio is truly over the top. How does the woman know just how long the man may be watching her? Perhaps longer than he is telling his wife. How can she be 1000% positive her being recorded isn’t being seen by other people who are analyzing the footage as well? And just what if (?) there is not a camera in the bathroom, but audio??! No one can expect instant trust w/a new family either. Mutual trust goes both ways here. Why is the Nanny presumed guilty until she can be proved to the family that she is trustworthy? Shouldn’t the Nanny also have time to trust the family initially as well??! Sure families will say that they rarely look at the cameras, that they are primarily to peek at the kids while at work, that they are used primarily if an intruder enters. These are all just B.S. excuses to manipulate the Nanny to comply w/being filmed all day. Because after all, What evil monster would ever want to deny a parent the ability to check in w/their child every day????[/quote]
