Full-time Nanny with SAHP - Why?
| Tue, 02-10-2004 - 6:41pm |
Something I've often wondered about, but never had the opportunity to ask. Why do SAHM or SAHD need a full time nanny, especially when they aren't working from home. I can easily see the need if the SAHP is a WAHP, but what is the logic for a full time nanny otherwise?
Any comments?

I don't claim charitable deductions on my taxes, because for me personally (everyone else's mileage will vary, so don't anyone lose a shoe or anything) it's not charitable giving if I get somethint monetary out of it (i.e., the tax deduction), so I don't keep a record and have no clue how much I give every year.
And? I agree with you, what's the gripe?
My parents paid a lot towards my college education, and I believe strongly I have an obligation to pass the gift along.

If we're talking your priorities for your family, I don't see the problem. You aren't living like that, so your priorities are being met.
On the other hand, I think any discussion in which some OTHER family is supposed to cater to YOUR priorities, simply because you can't grasp thinking any other way is doomed to failure. Your priorities are both meaningless and worthless when applied to any family but your own.
And I NEVER said that only people who should afford it should go to certain schools. I'm very active in fundraising for several scholarships, so I'd really appreciate it if you would knock off the unflattering and blatently wrong assumptions. Where did that come from? Certainly not me. What "let them eat cake" attitude?
FTR, we have the opposite problem with volunteers, maybe we could send some of our volunteers elsewhere, in this town they're stepping on top of eachother. The school has to constantly turn people away. Too many people with too much time on their hands.
