If you have a five year old boy names "Steven", your nanny or Au pair (European sounding, looking) is very impatient with your son and seemed to be laughing at him with her friend (also of European descent). I overheard her tell him, "Don't be stupid" and "That's stupid, no, no and no". All he wanted to do was use her coffee cup to get water to do something in the dirt with his friend. I hardly thought that was necessary. Also, your son, Steven seems like such a sweet kid. I think he deserves to have a kinder childcare provider.
"Don't be stupid" is emotionally abusive! Horrible!
