Nannies and kindergarten teachers have replaced the parental bonds children share with their parents

The invent of nannies, babysitters and also daycare centers, not forgetting preschools and universities have replaced the role of a parent in the life of his or her child. Working mothers for example spend a lot of time in their offices thus leave their children under the care of their teachers, for those who can afford nannies, and babysitters to take care of their children. I am not a mother yet and you are probably thinking that I have no right of opinion in this matter but am afraid I do have a say in this because my parents left me under the care of my nanny whom up to now I share a deep bond with compared to the one of my mother. When I will have a child, I understand now what my parental rights are. They are basically being in the position of participating in my child's life and education despite the presence of a nanny, I would also make it a habit of getting the reports that are in regard to my child's progress in school, and the one I lacked from my parents is be in the position to collaborate with the teacher to make informed decisions that would be to better my child's life.
