In a perfect world, yes, a child's family would be a source of stability. But most families are far from that, in reality. After parents divorce, at least one of them wants to hurry up and get another partner.[/quote]
Ermm...divorce doesn't happen in "most families".  And neither does it erase parents from the child's life. [/quote]
Has the divorce rate dropped below 50 percent? That would be good news.[/quote]
Actually, it has, and for certain segments of the population (coincidentally most likely to hire nannies) it has never been 50%.  Are you that cliche-ridden in your work as well?

Even if we go with your (incorrect) claim, let's say the likelihood of divorce is 50%.  The likelihood of a nanny eventually disappearing from a child's life is 100%.  Which brings me to....

Family is the only thing deserving of attachment. [/quote]
There certainly are cherished nannies who stay close to wonderful families until they die. I know one family who even provided financial support for their nanny (long after she retired) until she died. Such is a real relationship with a loving caregiver of your child. Contrast that to your revolving door nannies, depriving a young child of any continuity of care. [/quote]
That's not the rule and certainly not in this country (that's why you know ONE such family). And actually, the real professional has enough retirement savings to make charity unnecessary.

Nannies come and go. Family stays.  You know nothing of my children so let's all stop pretending that you do.
