The racism in this comment....

Actually you saying the comment was racist is what is racist. What a stupid stereotype.

Isn't there a place on the forum where you can find out if it is a troll?

I called it!

OP has gone very quiet. Think this could have been a troll post.

OP didn't say it was perfume. She said it was a mothball old person smell. Maybe that's how the perfume smells?

Poor nanny. Everybody smells, good, bad, who cares.

I hate some perfumes people wear but I'm too polite to say anything. I mind my own business.

She's trying. He's little. He isn't getting it consistently yet. And, if her perfume is really strong, and she's picking him up and leaning over him, etc., then it really may be unbearable for him.

Just teach your kid not to be so upfront and saying nasty things to people, that's your job as a parent.

Hope the nanny did quit.

People's sense of smell deteriorates with age. What the nanny may think is "not much" perfume could actually be quite a lot. I'd start by asking her not to wear perfume at all. Kids are honest little a-holes. Tell them not to say something and that's the first thing they're going to talk about.

Have fun tomorrow, OP. Next time try talking to your nanny or even personal friends before posting. I hope your nanny does quit.
