[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]America first!! Right, pp? ?

When you employ a foreign nanny and you like her, you make it work with a temp. [/quote]

Oh, stop the crap.  You have a foreign nanny because she is cheaper.  End of discussion.  [/quote][b]

Actually I am a foreign nanny (with a degree since apparently that's important in this thread) who is now a legal US citizen and I take a month of time off and my nanny family who has employed me for 5 years is perfectly happy to hire a temp.

Why hire a foreign nanny? Well I speak 5 languages. 3 fluent, 2 conversational. We are also more open minded apparently.[/quote]

I am an American nanny who speaks three languages fluently.  I have never taken more than one week off at a time.  I fail to see how being inconvenienced makes the employer "open minded".  That is all we are talking about, PP - the inconvenience of the month long nanny vacation.  [/quote][b][b]

Let me guess you don't have a passport, pp.

I actually really feel sorry for you. Travel is important and you are missing out.[/quote]

I am working, Child.  I have responsibilities.  I am a grown up with a mortgage and husband who also works.  We both traveled a great deal in college, doing a year abroad, and when we were with the Peace Corp.  Now we have jobs that we honor.  [/quote]

My home is paid off, 'child'. I am also working and have employers that allow me to travel. [/quote]

DP here.  So what is the "travel is important and you are missing out" and "I feel sorry for you" crap?  You are being stunningly childish, PP.   I laughed when I read how the Peace Corp nanny took you down.

You currently have employers who allow you to take extended time off.  Good for you. That is not the norm in this country nor is it what OP is interested in.  [/quote][/quote]
