I can't say for sure. I can say she seems to really care about her charges. maybe she feels she can do some good staying? It's been suggested that Ruby is working and in this country illegally so that could also be a concern. All I know is she is a wonderful nanny i hope the family at least treats her well finacially....Somehow i doubt it.OP (NR)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-17291777270967985472012-06-22T21:57:28.135-04:002012-06-22T21:57:28.135-04:00I am the OP and I promise I am not Ruby.

This little girl has quite the reputation on the school yard of being the worst sort of brat. The other day was the last straw for me when I was watching. School just let out for the year but I will try to get a picture next time and post it. My reason for posting in hopes the child's parents will see this and be embarrassed. I just felt that poor Ruby deserves some recognition. Whatever they pay her is not enough!!!<br /><br />Thanks so much for posting this!OP (NOT RUBY) :)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-60454379659283614892012-06-22T12:11:40.627-04:002012-06-22T12:11:40.627-04:00I realize I'm probably going to get my butt ch...I realize I'm probably going to get my butt chewed for even suggesting this, but: is it possible that Ruby hasn't accepted this other job because Ruby posted this "sighting" herself. Maybe knowing her MB reads occasionally. A way to mention what a brat her oldest charge is without mentioning it directly? Maybe listing the job offer as a way to say "hey, other people want me and they would probably pay me more than you". <br /><br />Please don't stone me alive, haha.

I would have quite a few to submit lol. <br /><br />It's truly awful the direction these upcoming generations are taking. These parents "afraid" to parent are raising a generation of self entitled brats. I could NEVER imagine acting like Ruby's charge and my mom going along with that nonsense. I hope Ruby's bosses see this but by the way it sounds I doubt the parents would do anything about their little brat. If anything they would probably "punish" Ruby for not being in control of the child.OhhPleasenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-36413585547469648952012-06-22T03:42:28.038-04:002012-06-22T03:42:28.038-04:00Umass,

I just don't get it. As a working professional nanny, the majority of the families I work with have the kids running the show. Little Jonny doesn't want to eat such and such for lunch, so he doesn't have to and then he tells his parents what he will and will not eat. Like he is in a restaurant or something. Little Suzy does not want to wear her jacket to the playground, pitches a fit and parents gives in...instead of saying she cannot go to the playground for her bad behavior.<br /><br />Parents, as long as you coddle your kids and let them run the show, the world will be a society of self-entitled brats. Thank God I will be gone by then.<br /><br />Watching the video of those middle-school kids taunting that bus monitor is a tangible example of the direction the future generation is going unless parents start being parents, not enablers.<br /><br />As a kid, I ate what was on my plate...no ifs, ands or buts. If I didn't like it, then tough...I went hungry. If I pitched a fit, then I was duly punished for it.Old School Natalienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-54419842725394539512012-06-21T16:43:40.071-04:002012-06-21T16:43:40.071-04:00All these stories of kids just completely disrespe...All these stories of kids just completely disrespecting adults blows my mind.
