Saturday

Fashion Square in Scottsdale, Arizona

Received Saturday, October 13, 2007
I observed an incident at Fashion Sqaure in Scottsdale and think it should be reported. The nanny got out of a vehicle at and lit up a cigarette and then got the stroller out of the back of the car and then reached in the car and removed the very little baby and placed the baby in the stroller. All the while with a smokey cigarette in her mouth. She disappeared in the car to unhook the child and reemerged with the ciggarette dangling in her mouth. She was then leaning over the child strapping her in to the stroller. After she gets the baby in the seat, her cell phone rings. She begans to have a conversation with someone- sounded like a boyfriend that was a screamfest of expletives and threats. She was very, very angry. She had the child in the stroller right next to her and was smoking furiously. Then, she hangs up the phone... and? Goes around to the other side to get out a second child! This nanny just didn't strike me as nanny material, not too mention there is no doubt the little girl could hear every word she said from inside the car (which had to be hot to wait in) because I could hear her from where I was waiting.

Could be a white trash mom. Are you sure it wasn't Britney Spears?

Mocking a mother you know nothing about besides what the drama loving tabloids love you to think.

She probably yelling because she needs $$ for those cigarettes.

It is possible that this is the mom. whether mom, or nanny, sounds like she needs to attend parenting classes.

If this was the nanny, you can be sure the mom knows she smokes. I am a former smoker and as much as you think you can hide it, you can't. It didn't seem like she was even trying. Disgusting.

why would you assume it was a nanny?

It sounds like my nanny...I'm calling her for a meeting now..and if I find out she was at this location at that time the OP says..she is fired immediately..I asked an array of questions before hiring her..one of them being "are you a NON smoker?" and her reply was yes, she is a non smoker. I called her references..they were great..my kids love her to death..always smiling when I come home..but..this... I'm totally beside myself. If this is my nanny, she is out of here in a heartbeat! Sounds just like her

I really think we should have a site:

I a really bad mom/dad

for all aunts, uncles, grandparents and ACS to know about HIDEOUS parenting I see all over Park Slope, uptown Manhattan.

Who is keeping an eye on THEM?

Scotsdale Arizona has a lot of rich residents. Someone looking like the person described in this sighting was most likely a nanny or similar.

How can you judge someone by the way they look? Just because they were smoking and has overprocessed hair doesn't mean crap

Anonymous said...

Those things go to judgement. Peole who smoke, or do not have the concern for themselves to try to look even halfway decent, often are not the sharpest tacks in the box. Nor do dignified people, the kind you want your children exposed to, tend to have vulgar shouting matches in public. It all goes to what example you want to set for oyur children.

Thank god for bad nannies. My wife stays home with my infant son, and gives him all the love and attention he deserves.

When my well-adjusted, confident son competes against your neurotic, self-doubting child; my son will wipe the floor with your kid, in academics and sports.

Good post 2:32 pm. Bless your wife for being a loving everyday mommy to your son.

Just to warn you though, you are going to get a lot of hateful responses on this site. It seems that many people here are more interested in perpetuating their own denial, in order to justify their self-serving, narcissistic existences, than hearing about what is actually best for their kids. If you dare pop their "denial" bubble, they become angry, defensive and abusive.
Of course, when this happens, you know that you have really pushed somebody's guilt button, and perhaps, seeing as this person at least seems to posess a conscience (even though they may not be guided by it at the moment), they might start to at least admit that they are serving themselves at the expense of their children, and maybe someday go on to make an honorable change in lifestyle.

2:32, I hope your attitude won't rub off on your poor child. Egotism and selfishness like that damages a kid's chances of ever making it in the real world.
