    Haha I thought that too. “The cabinets will be locked” is the weirdest part imo. As if people spend hundreds or thousands of dollars installing locks in their own home so they can keep potential nannies out of the snacks.

      Honestly I wouldn’t be that surprised if at least some people have done that. The richer people get, the more they hate the concept of sharing. These are the kind of people that would let food rot rather than give it away.

          Sure but your comment was about it not happening and I’m saying that, weird or not, there’s a high chance at least a few people have done that or something similar.

            Not sure why someone downvoted you. The mother of one of my classmates as a child was absolutely psychotic (still is) and she insisted on having locks on every cabinet, not just to keep out the nannies (though I think she paid premium prices for all of her nannies to be Harvard-educated), but to keep out the children, so they couldn’t snack without permission. All of her children got fucked socioemotionally from her insanity.

      I read that as locking the cabinets to keep the kids out. So they won’t be able to grab candy or whatever.

          I have the low cabinets in my kitchen and my fridge door “locked” with these little buckle things because my cat and dog can open them and like to try to steal/destroy things.

            Well yes I know about those. Presumably a nanny would be smart enough to open those. All you have to do is push down on them a little, if it’s the same thing I’ve seen
