[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"The primary caregiver is always the parent. The responsibility, funding, decisions, stability rests with the parent. Good daytime caregivers - nannies, friends, teachers - add to the mom/dad, but they don't replace parents."

I'm an MB but...
1. no, parents are not always the primary caregivers. Primary caregiver is the one(s) w/ the child for most of their waking hours over a week/month/whatever. In some cases that might be mom, in many it's nanny. Nanny WAS my dd's primary caretaker my first year back at work. I hated that so i cut back hours some so that i was seeing DD at least as much as her, if not more.
2. even if nanny is the primary caretaker, of course that's not a replacement of the parents. They always have a unique and long term role. But parent does not always and necessarily equal primary caregiver.[/quote]
If you're an MB, you are a primary caregiver. You know why? A nanny, even the best nanny, can get another job, move countries, get married, and leave you with nothing but a sweet card and a three week notice. You, the mommy, are stuck with this. You'll be there. That's why.[/quote]
You need a dose of reality. As sad as it is, even some mommies leave their children. No one here is wearing a chain around her neck.[/quote]
