When Libs have kids

So THIS ADVERT seems to be all over the bloggosphere lately. It's by an "artist" in Manhattan who was looking for a brave soul to be a nanny to her 4 kids. Whew. Just reading parts of that advert are chilling.

Now, I don't have children, so I really have no point of reference, but I was brought up in a rather strict household where discipline put the fear and respect of God, my parents, and others (esp. other adults) into my soul, traits that have been passed down to my nieces and nephews. So I'm thinking if you're going to start your ad with "my kids are a pain in the ***", maybe they're that way partly because of Mommy dearest.

Sounds like it might be a case of lack of discipline, too much focus on being an "artist" (sorry but I've seen her work, so I use that term loosely), and you know what? Perhaps if you DID watch their diets a bit more, ADHD would not be a problem, honey.

Also, there are ways to NOT HAVE CHILDREN if things are so out of hand in your life that you think a nanny will help to solve things. I'm just sayin.

Of course, since the original ad was posted on Craigslist, someone came back with a great rebuttal!
