[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parents are primary caregivers. They have the legal, moral and physical responsibility for their children. All decisions around raising the children belong to the parents. Nannies are trusted employees but do not know the child best, nor do they know how to raise their charges better than a parent. OP, you are trying to start trouble here and you are failing. Give it up.[/quote] How do you know your child "best", when you're down on K St., most of your child's waking hours? Even if nanny produces a daily log with a few highlights of each day, your "getting to know your child", is second-hand, at best. It's the person who is directly providing the majority of the care, who knows the child, the best. Of course, if you keep the nanny door revolving, no one really knows the child. One has to wonder what kind of early childhood the rich white boy, school shooters, had.... [/quote] +1...I think some parents are in denial because they WANT to be the ones who know their child best but in all honesty, you're not. I don't even say that to be rude but it's just a fact. I am with my charge 78 waking hours per week and my MB/DB are with him for 13. I take him to all appointments-medical, dental, haircuts...all playgroups and activities- music class, gymnastics, swim lessons....I am positive that I know him better than my MB/DB. It's just reality. [/quote]
