jstaubin It is one of the most giving things that you can do and you are right they should have a way to find out who the real parents are. when they don't it leaves the child feeling like there is something missing from their lives.

Do you think that having a nanny cam in any way violates the rights of a baby sitter? Are nanny cams a good idea or a bad idea?

jstaubin I couldn't agree with you more. the child should feel as comfortable as possible in that situation and forcing things only makes things difficult.

Would you rather be humiliated when you tell someone you like him/her or never knowing whether or not he/she likes you because you didn't have the courage to tell them how you feel?
