[quote=Anonymous]Wow....I cannot believe you guys are siding with the mother here. Just because her kids see someone else eating something she doesn't want her kids to eat, you guys think it is okay for the mother to discipline the nanny vs. the children.

Who are the adults here? Who are the authority figures here? By this MB telling the nanny to NOT eat certain foods she finds unacceptable is catering BIG time to her kids.

Kids need to be taught that they cannot have everything they want. If they see their nanny eating potato chips with her lunch, and ask for some, they need to be told that they cannot have that to eat because their mother doesn't allow it. Plain and simple.

This mother is chicken to discipline her own kids. Instead of teaching them values, etc. she opts to focus everything on Ms. Nanny.

It is the MOTHER'S job here to teach her kids that in life, there will be many times where they will see something they want. And there will be many times that they will not be able to have everything just because their hearts desire it.

That's like a person talking to a grocery store manager and asking him to please stop displaying toys in the cereal aisle or checkout. It would be stupid to complain about the toys creating a problem since when your kids see it, they start to ask for it and/or fuss, etc. 
As a parent your job is to parent your child. Teach him restraint, etc.

This mother is obviously a horrible mother.
She is too scared to tell her sons that what the nanny eats is her business and that all that matters to her is that they are well-taken care of by her every day.
Instead she is trying to take the easy road and ask the nanny to switch her lunch choices up because in her head that is much easier than dealing w/two young kids who will cry and fuss just because they see something they want but cannot have.

I shudder to think that some of you parents would do the same as this MB.
Grow a spine and tell your kids "No" every now and then.
Society will thank you later when it is run by adults who do not have self-entitlement issues. Isn't that a common complaint these days with our youth?[/quote]
