I felt so guilty once when I got annoyed with dd for whining (in the absence of visible illness) and then that very night she threw up everywhere.

Yes, I realize that you are asking me that, why I don't know.

Ironically, that 65 y/o person hired me when I was in college. One of my jobs in college was cleaning house for an elderly woman who was still mobile and all, but any job that required bending over gave her a backache. Odly enough, I never felt demeaned cleaning her toilet. In fact, my mind wandered (of course!) to what I would be doing later that evening.

"They only get music/pe/library time once a week and art only once a month."


Our elementary school offers music weekly; pe twice a week; library once a week; art every other week. In only 30 hours.

And you have the right to judge another teacher just because you're trained as a teacher?

You could learn pretty easily (it's about a 15 minutes lesson, or was for me when dh showed me how). But you have decided not to learn how even though it would take you a very short time. And yet, you are boggled whenever other people decline to do things they could do in a short time? It would probably take you less time to learn how to change your oil than it would for somebody to clean their own toilet. And yet you continue not to learn. Oh the irony...

I think most of us have "been there done that" kinds of stories, if not about missing whining as a sign of an oncoming illness, then about something else.

<<You admitted yourself that everyone is a stranger to each other at one point. At one point these people (nannies, housekeepers) were strangers and they had access to their house.>>


That is incorrect logic and is not founded by anything stated in this thread.
