Shoulda thought about it before breeding that much.

This doesn't make any sense Marti.  We did think about it - and we thought about either daycare, or a nanny.  We didn't need to do anything at the time because we're only going to need child care some time in 2014, when my wife is ready to go back to work.

I will be astonished if this thread doesn't devolve into pervy comments within the first five comments, so much so I haven't read the thread before posting.  :cool:

It didn't, and BB already expressed dissapointment at that!  :lol:

Damn, now read the thread, good grief you guys are slipping.  :(

And STILL! nobody has asked the right question.

Aren't your kids worth a little bit more than someone making minimum wage to care for them?

You might have thought so, but here we are...

Sounds like Garbon is volunteering his services.  ;)

But he won't actually post a picture to prove it, so we'll all be disappointed. 

I suggest we pre-emptively refuse to create a languish meme based around BB and his brazilian nanny.

My family had Au Pairs from Iceland each of the 5 years I lived in California.

They got room and board for speaking to us kids in icelandic and being at home between me and my brother's end of school and my parents return (usually late) from work. Au Pairs these days for non-ex-pats seem to be mostly glorified fillipina maids.

My understanding is that most overseas nannies are in fact filipino.

And so 'square' you'll remain.

What was on offer was some colour and a little bid of raffishness, like wide lapels, over large cufflinks or a 1980s Liverpool footballers perm or moustache.   :cool:
