Used to be a nanny. Now I am retired!!! I think your daughter might be tired of the same job after having the same one for so long. And sharing a job is not the same as "training" someone else to take the job over, when you move on to the next responsibility. A seven year -old person's job is certainly not for a nine year old!;) Just thought maybe my experiece might
be of some help to you. It sounds like you have some delightful children.:)
I certainly miss all of my little ones!!

Hmmm... maybe when you still love your kids but don't really like them too much. That's when we know we've let things get a little lax and it's time to get back to work :)

Like others said, if you're asking yourself this question you're already doing a great job of parenting and your kids probably aren't spoiled!

I think one sign might be kids who feel entitled to everything, for example kids for whom eating out or getting something special isn't even a treat.
