[quote=Anonymous]The comments about immigrants irked me too. Both of our children's nannies were immigrants. They were also both U.S. citizens. They did occasionally take extended trips to their home countries, but in one case it was once in a two-year run with several months' notice, fully covered with accrued PTO, and in the other it was never during the 2.5 years we employed her--she took a monthlong trip before starting with our share and a six-week trip after our kids started preschool. This notion that immigrants are looking for 6+ weeks of leave each year is a little nuts (as is the notion that immigrants are not Americans--many are!) The one thing that was true, I guess, was that they lived with several other people--they were both married with kids...[/quote]
