Should I be proud or ashamed of the fact that, at fifteen months, DS2 was expelled by the other Mums from babygroup? U should explain: we are expats and I am a WOHM. Whilst on maternity leave I took DS2 to babygroup, met the other Mums, made friends with the babies etc. Of course everyone here has nannies so that they can have time off from their kids and go to the gm, have their air done and other important aspects in the life of an expatSAHM. I also have a nanny as it's the only form of childcare available here. She used to go with us to baby group sometimes and once I strated back at work, when DS2 was three months old, she carried on taking him. Nanny is lovely - fluent English, my age, sense of humour, her own teenage DD, intelligent etc etc. After a year (yes, a full twelev months) of her taking DS to babygroup, the expat mums decided they didn't want a nanny around as it made them feel unconformatble, so my nanny and DS1 and a friend's PNFB and Nanny were kicked out of babygroup. Does anyone else think this is a bit unreasonable?
