OK I defer to you - placating is the best, eh. That's sorted Nikki out over 24 years (guessed time)

lol - I dont want to be deferred to. I agree with you that Nikki hasn't been 'sorted' in 24 years but it doesn't help that she became famous for her tantrums and thinks thats what most of us want to see. As I said I think in some situations Ulrika's approach is appropriate and you cant always placate but sometimes the 'handling' thing is best - not always, just sometimes. Ulrika has such intolerance and I dont think likes Nikki at all and that doesnt always work either.
Nikki is not my fave and can be very irritating and spoilt but I do think she had a point in the Majorettes task and I think Ulrika didn't consider her at all just because she doesn't like her

On reflection my initial analogy was a wrong one.........I dislike Nikki so was likening her to a naughty child which is invalid.

The treatment of adults with behavioural problems is not the same as the treatment of kindergarden children who are learning about the world. Hence mental health workers do not suddenly transfer to become Nursery carers and vice-versa. I made a bad analogy.

Well I guess we'll wait and see if the beds are changed because the thing that Vanessa did wrong was to say she would give in if Nikki whinged enough. If they stay where they are and Nikki just drops it Vanessa was quite clever - if not then Ulrika's way is right

Still believe you're treating this as the real world, not a short-term contract. Vanessa did what she did to avoid conflict and hope she comes out of it looking good for her future employment prospects. Don't actually think Ulrikkkka needs or is lexpecting much future employment from her short-term contract - she's there for the fee and is ired by this baby adult with behavioural problems.

No No I'm quite aware that Ulrika and Nikki having all sorts of fall out would be much better viewing and I for one would much rather see this in the BB house from an entertainment perspective.

I think we both made the wrong analogy with children because for obvious reasons it is so easy to view Nikki as a child. I'm not 'treating' it as the real world just opening a discussion on views, which will obviously differ but thats the beauty of it, if we all agreed or saw things the same we couldnt have these forums
