[russell]

A bit like sas is to us.

Im new here so will withhold my judgement. Seems like everyone is having a go at poor SAS though? Why is that?

Draw your own conclusions.

Coming up for 20 years married with 2 children my wife stopped work when she had the first one and yes money was tight but we brought them into the world so their our responsibility they still went to nursery and schools but were safe in the knowledge when they got home one of their parents would be there to greet them.

who said anything about the wife staying home there are 2 of you.i just find it strange when people put there children in the hands of strangers and then complain when somthing happens or is not how they expected it to be, some people spend longer choosing their new car than they do the people who look after their children

I get your point, but I don't agree that the child interacting mainly with the parent after a year is necessarily healthy for the child, or the parent
I have looked after my son several times and much as I love him, it would drive me potty to do so day after day.
We did our research with this nanny, prior to us she was 7 years at the same family and the kids were still friends with her and considered her part of the family.
You can tell my son is fond of her and she back - I think she just tolerates a bit too much horse play.

Is she Polish? I thought you only employed Polish people as Brits are all lazy and thick etc.

Or it could all be bollocks and you're back to your bedsit tonight with only a potnoodle for company.

Poor SASGURU, if only life wasn't so cruel to you.

The problem is humans are programmed to love their own children and wont really give a crap about other peoples. If the nanny is bringing her own kids, your kid will be just an annoying inconvenience to her.

Well if that were true, nurseries and schools would be complete hell holes.
Putting myself in that situation I don't think I would treat another person's child differently - unless I was one of those people who didn't like children.

No Poles are for building work and cleaning.

Of course you treat other peoples kids differently. They're like farts, you love your own but other peoples just make you retch.
