[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think for many of these parents its not about sheltering the kids from things they assuredly do with them themselves, its making sure the nanny isn't having any enjoyment on their dime and is catering only to their child and family's needs. It's really quite sad how far some will go. No malls because she could shop, no coffee shops because she could drink coffee, no parks because there's a bench and other nannies, etc. these are the parents that want nanny at home dancing around like a monkey all day or cleaning their house.

How many insecure Mbs are secretly jealous of the nanny? (Those are the ones doing the passive-aggressive micromanagement.)[/quote]

Just to be clear, it was a nanny who wrote the post about staying away from malls, bookstores and coffee shops. A lot of MBs responded to this post saying the OP was overreacting. I'm an MB and I have encouraged my nanny to take the kids to the mall. They have a great play area. In addition if she stopped in a store because she needed to pick up something while we was there I'd have no problem with it either. My nanny has, on multiple occasions, asked if I minded of she stopped at CVS or Target when she was out with the kids and I have always told her it was completely fine. I do appreciate that she tells me and it helps us have a trusting relationship but because I DO trust her, I also wouldn't care if I came home and saw a bag and she told me about it after the fact.

My point is there are lots of MBs who would have no problem with any of this just as there are some nannies who chimed in to say they'd never take the kids they take care of to the mall. [/quote]
