Poppy's mum is a bitch!

Nemo2007 · 21/05/2007 21:48

OMG why is she showing the poor girl how to put a pinny on?

I'm not suprised Jilly's single.

Most men would probably leave skidmarks and hte smell of burning rubber in her wake.

Why someone so anal would employ someone so clearly laid back I don't know!

pickledpear · 21/05/2007 21:50

why did she think she would be au pair material if she comes from house where everything has been done for her by servants strange i thought they went to school in day to learn language and helped around the house didnt realise they could be untrained and look after kids must get one...lol

Chelseamum · 21/05/2007 21:50

oh my god!

These poor little aupairs are both being abused by the parents and the tv company!
Feel very sorry for them!

Those parents should be ashamed to expect so much from these untrained girls to take care of their children and their houses and have the cheeck to critisise them when they are paying them peanuts!

Naughty nono!

lisad123 · 21/05/2007 21:50

do you think she will show how to stick a cork up her arse next and put a plum in her mouth

expatinscotland · 21/05/2007 21:51

I hope she does MN and finds out most people think she's a bitch.

Chica · 21/05/2007 21:51

Useful to watch these shows as can see mum's mistakes too.

WK007 · 21/05/2007 21:51

Honestly, the one who has a rigid schedule that, if disturbed, has a knock on effect to the rest of the world!!! If things don't get done here they get done late, its not a big deal!!

Am I old fashioned, I always thought au pairs were to look after your house - eg clean, make dinner etc, not for permanent childcare - thats a nanny, surely.

And what sort of interview do these mums give the au pair - they seem to know nothing about them when they start work!!!

Snobby mums who don't pay attention piss me off!

lisad123 · 21/05/2007 21:52

god poor girls, like doing what I do daily, but for my own kid and in my house!

Ceolas · 21/05/2007 21:53

Obviously trying to get full time childcare without paying a nanny

pickledpear · 21/05/2007 21:53

thought her mother harped on didnt realise she taught the child too

Chica · 21/05/2007 21:53

Anna is fed up and tired - au pairing was a big mistake - easier ways to learn English!

expatinscotland · 21/05/2007 21:53

I don't blame Anna. If she were my daughter I'd be on a plane to pick her up and I wouldn't leave before 'Jilly' got an earful from me.

Chica · 21/05/2007 21:54

Glad this mum is a bit understanding but everyone cant be happy all the time

moodlumthehoodlum · 21/05/2007 21:55
