[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids are now 13, 10, and 8.  We've never invited a nanny to a birthday party (and I certainly can't imagine doing so at these ages, nor, by the way, would I ever dream of asking a nanny to shop for my kids' birthday gifts or wrap them).  Our nanny works for us, she's not part of the family or within our close circle of friends; no different than any other day care provider.        [/quote]

Are they or are they not an employee?[/quote]

No, PP, nannies are NOT an "employee" to the children in their care.  They are beloved and you insulted your kids in not including their nanny in their birthday celebrations.  You basically told your little ones that their relationship and feelings don't matter to you.  I am so sad that you cannot see that.

- signed an MB who grew up with a much loved nanny.  [/quote]

Is this a joke?  Insulted the kids?  What a crock.  A nanny is an employee, and nothing more, like it or not, the same way a teacher who may be beloved is still a teacher and not a family member or close friend.  [/quote]

Wow, PP, you haven't got a clue what is going on in your children's heads or hearts.  I truly do feel so sorry for your children.  [/quote]

I feel sorry for you and yours.   Do you really think my 14 year old daughter wants or ever has wanted a nanny at her birthday?  Has never mentioned it once, in all her years.  My 10 year old son at his, playing laser tag with his friends?  How about the 8 year old, should the nanny tag along to get mani-pedis or play mini-golf at her party with 10 little girls and a couple of close mom-friends?  Even though most parties are drop offs past age 5, maybe 6, you really think the nanny should be there to celebrate with my kids and all their friends?  You are delusional.  [/quote]

OP was talking about parties with kids.  You never have birthday parties with family and neighbors?  Interesting.[/quote]
