None of the women who cleaned for my house worked for an agency. They made roughly $20/hr.

Why do you assume that my home is nicer than theirs? Why do you assume that all cleaning ladies are low-income earners? $20/hr is pretty decent pay. You obviously have a stereotypical view of cleaning ladies. And not only that, your insinuation that people who hire cleaning ladies are snobs afraid to break their nails is ridiculous.

YOu are so wrong! I cleaned many homes that were not as nice as my aunt's. My house keeper has a more custom home that I do. IT is beautiful! Most our money for hour house with 4 children under 10 is space. We have a large home, it is not as custom as my house keepers, it is much bigger.

Thank you. That's what I was saying.

Or it could be the parent's *good* or just typical behavior. Say you've got a parent that is sickeningly nice and sweet all of the time. She/He might end up with a spoiled child.
