Oh God, if you feel gross out by your nanny, a stupid toilet should be the less of your concerns, she touches your kids on everyday basis, prepare their meals, bath them, etc. Acting like a psycho-maniac about a toilet is not helping. Fire her then and send your kids to a day care if this is such a drama. [ Reply | More ]
