[quote=Anonymous]I'm too busy to read the thread but I do have time to weigh in. I'm a nanny, a great one, and we rarely watch tv. Think sick days or after a long trip, never part of our regular routine. The toddler will watch some minimal tv with her parents (on the tv) though, and somehow it's never been an issue for us. I think it's crazy to ask a family not to use their television to make your job a TINY bit easier. It's not difficult to teach kids, even toddlers, that TV is a special treat you enjoy with mom and dad. OP, your nanny is crossing a boundary but rather than get wrapped up in it tell her you've decided you will be watching family shows on the big screen but you and your husband will continue to message that it is a treat to enjoy with mom and dad. She should have no trouble reinforcing that if your kids hear it clearly from you.[/quote]
