    • I get nouveau riche vibes from them. Those that have real wealth and assets are going to be more private and less likely to divulge details of their daily lives. Plus, they tend to be more modest and are more careful of their expenses. These people do not come from true wealth and prestige.

    • @@cityhawk Nope. The richest people in the world overall are new money or new-ish money (not technically new money in many cases), or have much the same culture in any case. Though there are a small number of exceptionally wealthy families who are old money and are very quiet, that’s an exception.

  • I feel so sad for that philipino nanny. If these people are so rich, why on earth would they not give her a paid week off, and pay for her to fly home and see her own children a few times a year? At minimum? Do they not care about the mental health of the person raising their children?? Let her take your kids with her for the week, if you can’t be bothered looking after them. It would be a great cultural experience for them. What happens, when the children she raised are grown? Is she just thrown away? To me, this is abuse, to the nanny, your children, and her children. What a horrible example you are setting for your children.

    • They should have thought about her and her children. I’m sure they could have worked it out for her to have her children near her. Hearing what she sacrificed made me so sad for her

    • ​@Lucinda Sullivan If anything, you should feel sorry for the nannys children. She abandoned her own children to go take care of a strangers kids..smh.. Why have kids if you can’t take care of them and that goes for the nanny as well. She is no different then the other woman who pays for the child service. If anything the nanny is worse because she left her children, the other woman lives in the same house as hers.

    • @@marypeters4576 You are way off base. This is 2 completely different situations! It is not uncommon in certain countries for the mother to work overseas as a domestic helper or nanny then send money back to her children. There are not a lot of employment opportunities in some countries and this is sometimes the only option to provide for your family. Pls educate yourself before you make rude remarks about a mother abandoning her children when that is NOT the case!

  • I worked on private yachts for 20 years for very wealthy people. The man at the end of the video who bought a house for his nanny is so kind. Few would do that or appreciate the importance of their nanny

  • Listen to those young girls mocking the driver’s accent. That’s extremely disrespectful. They’ll grow up to be just like their mother, I’m afraid.

    • I disagree. Those kids seemed pretty polite, they were just a little ignorant.
      I wouldn’t call what they were doing ‘making fun of’, either. They were just noticing a difference between his accent and theirs, something ALL kids do at some point.

    • It‘s not the kids’ fault, but saying his accent is different from ,English’ is quite problematic. The kids were probably doing it innocently, but this is exactly the moment when a parent should step in and tell them that you shouldn’t say such things.

  • If I was wealthy I would have no problem having staff for cooking cleaning etc. but no one would raise my children but me.

  • If one child requires a staff of 15 full-time people, that just tells me that the average stay-at-home-mom is massively overworked and under-appreciated.
    And if she also home-schools? She’s like Wonder Woman.

  • Weirdly heartbreaking, homelessness is skyrocketing , when 130,000 children are homeless in the UK. How is this world so broken? Such imbalance

  • I feel sad for the 2 Filipino nannies shown on this documentary.. it’s a lot harder to take when you see one of your people (I’m also a Filipino) getting embarrassed in front of other people (can’t stand the scene where the nanny had to pick the poops and dirt up). I must say, of all the people shown on this documentary, the realest human beings are the nannies. Hats off to all the Overseas Filipino Workers who sacrificed a lot for their families and for contributing A LOT to the world’s economy!

    • Well, I would love to be a nanny. I raised my two children, and it would be like having grandchildren to me.
      I think it would make my life more fulfilling in a day

    • @@RhondaSinclair Then go ahead. Sign up with an agency, and let us know how it goes after a year. If you make it that long 🙂

    • @@iampetz I don’t wanna be travelling that far away from home I’d rather sign up for someone that’s closer to me

    • All the moms seemed really self absorbed except the mom worried about her children’s safety {M0B)

    • I honor all mothers. My mother was a stay at home mom; she had five of us. We harried her, we wore her down and we wore her out we aged her and we probably made her hate us. I saw what we did to our mother. She made cookies for us, home made soup, brought us to the dentist once a year and was always there when we came home from school where there was always a home made treat. Always. Because I remember how children are, I decided when I was a child that I would never be like my mother and would never have children. I am almost 70, live alone, never married and never had children. I do not regret this; I know no other way. This is why I honor all mothers. Not everyone has the power and determination to do what they do. Oh, and we also make them cry.

    • ​@@corners23251similar situation with my mom, she does everything around the house and she works part time too, I don’t know if it’s something I can handle, I’m still in my late teens but not knowing what I want to do with my life stresses me out

    • same. It just didn’t feel right to work at all until the kids were at school. One can’t get back missing time with one’s children.

  • So sad… The little girls mocking their drivers with no respect, the poor teenager playing the violin with no passion, the Asian nanny who can’t even see her kids more than every other year just so that the other lady could pop out 5 kids and never care for them. Children need love from their parents more than anything

    • They’re just being kids. It’s obviously rude and they should be told but that’s how children behave.

      Blamed the parenting, not the child

    • @@MrBettylachulaif my kids behave like this they will get punishment. So no this isn’t just kids they are spoiled rotten. Have no respect for human beings.

  • My parents had 6 children. They had no help but each other. Money was tight, but looking back it made a lovely, honest childhood.

  • I was a nanny for an older millionaire. The boys really cried when their dad fired me for standing up to how abusive he was. They were only 7 and 4, I still worry about them because they were so scared to be alone with him. 😭

    Some people really see their kids as a showboat

    • @@KwazyKupkakes I did! They said they’ve been reported a multitude of times and they do the right things, the end up doing drugs and arguing again. That’s why I cried, I promised the little boy I would help him and the social worker was kind of like “ha we’ve heard of them” :((

  • Vegetarian doesn’t mean “no sugar” “no sweet drinks.”
    Communication is key! 😂😅

  • I thought this was gonna make me depressed that I don’t have help, but I feel like an absolute superwoman woman after watching this💪 ❤here’s to all the moms with no damn help!

    • and dads, because its both thier jobs! especially in a world where the labor force is carried 80% by women.
