[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most nannies I know, work such long hours, that they DO care for the child more waking hours, then the parents do.[/quote]

How odd. Most nanny employers I know get back home by 6 pm at the latest.   Most nannies I know also aren't willing to work much beyond 6 pm, which is completely understandable.  (They also use their commas properly.)

Might that be a problem of your social circle?[/quote]
What you seem to "know," is what certain people tell you. I highly doubt you're there to see the facts for yourself, but suit yourself.[/quote]
Isn't this how we all know things? By what people tell us? How is it that you know what hours nannies work? I doubt you're there for all of them every day.  [/quote]
Considering the fact that I've been honored to have a good number of nanny jobs over the years, I have the benefit of speaking from firsthand experience.

That's what's commonly referred to as truly "knowing," when you aren't depending on someone else's experience/interpretation to understand something.[/quote]
Let me put it that way.  When my friends tell me they get home to relieve the nanny by 6 pm, I don't need experience or interpretation to back that up, I simply have no reason to doubt it. I don't need to be at their house with the stopwatch. It's kind of a stupid argument with you trying to prove to me that they are just pretending to work shorter hours and are really buried at the office till midnight with the nanny standing guard at home.

I have no doubt you've known nannies who work long hours. Likewise, you have no reason to doubt that I know nanny employers who work regular hours. Your work experience, rich and varied as it may be, doesn't cover every single job on the face of the earth. You're just one nanny out of a hundred thousand. Don't pretend that the world of nannydom contains no other experience but your own.
