the article in the newspaper said that the mother wanted to observe her maid.

even so, you can only blame the mother for trusting her child to a foreigner. you can't blame her for preferring not to look after her child. Its a personal choice after all.

No I read the other posts, I was refering to the comment about "foreigners" and childcare as a personal choice made by Splatted.
