[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I pay well (18 for one child, 37 hours a week) on the books to a nanny who I suspect is illegal because I pay her taxes using a tax id number not a ss number (I pay both her and my portion of fica taxes).  I love her more than anything and can't wait for her to be legal.  The benefit to me is that she will be able to drive.  The loss to me is that I will have to pay health insurance which may mean that either we cut out future raises or I cut her hours to under 35 depending on how much insurance will be (of course I'd prefer to give her insurance, but my family is literally just scrapping by - had to cut our 401ks to nothing to afford her).

She is a broken english nanny, btw, but she is wonderful with my kid (who now knows Spanish!). The choice is not exploited illegal or expensive legal.  Some of us pay well to the best person we can find to help us raise our kids, whether she is legal or not.[/quote]
Why will you HAVE to pay healthcare? It's far from standard. [/quote]
