Ugh I hate you for this I was like what could be wrong with him?
 
Seriously, it's great that Tom and Giselle are on this propaganda kick to look like great parents. Even if some of it is exaggerated for PR purposes -- I imagine there are a lot more nannies in reality than show up in the photographs -- it's a great message to be sending.
 
Alternatively, it could be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to meet Mrs. Brady.

Just because someone has nannies does not mean they can not be great parents. I am sure they see their kids often. Brady can be with them nearly all off season. Giselle can probably set her hours as she wants for the most part. I am sure there are times when neither parent is home and a nannies takes care of the kids for a day but I don't think they means they are not good parents.

Also a father being buried by his kids at a beach and having a photo taken is a "PR stunt" that happens to a lot of dads. In those cases though it just ends up on Facebook with only relatives seeing it or in an album.

I wasn't saying the Bradychen's are doing anything wrong in their presumed absences from the home. I'm just saying that the image they're portraying on Facebook is -- surprise!! -- a slightly slanted version of reality.

I don't know where you live, but it's pretty common for two-income families to put their kids in daycare. In a country like the US, it happens extremely early for most kids, sometimes within the first 3 months.

Daycare in large cities can be expensive. In Toronto, it can run easily $1,300 to $1,500 for a decent one, more for a better one. Once you have two kids in daycare, it's often cheaper to hire a nanny. I know plenty of dual-income middle-class families with nannies for this reason, and I wouldn't consider any of them to be lesser parents for doing so.

I think this is quite frankly, a pretty terrible cheap-shot. We don't know Tom or Giselle, we don't know what kind of parents they are, and having a nanny really doesn't mean anything. I know it's popular to criticize other parents for things they do, but really, this was beyond the line of good taste.

Who would put their nanny in their pictures they are sharing with the world? It seems like Brady is enjoying Facebook and is just posting pics of his vacation like normal Americans do.
