1
00:00:10,977 --> 00:00:15,539
Name... Annie Braddock.
2
00:00:15,582 --> 00:00:18,574
Age... 21.
3
00:00:18,618 --> 00:00:20,779
Area of interest...
4
00:00:20,820 --> 00:00:24,187
anthropology.
5
00:00:24,224 --> 00:00:26,124
Describe your
work experience
6
00:00:26,159 --> 00:00:28,992
as it relates
to your intended field.
7
00:00:29,029 --> 00:00:31,088
My God.
8
00:00:31,131 --> 00:00:33,759
Where do I begin?
9
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:36,792
Attention. The Museum of Natural History
10
00:00:36,836 --> 00:00:39,532
will be closing in
15 minutes.
11
00:00:41,674 --> 00:00:43,733
Please exit the hall
12
00:00:43,777 --> 00:00:46,337
by using
the western staircase.
13
00:00:59,192 --> 00:01:01,387
Child-rearing around the world
14
00:01:01,428 --> 00:01:04,727
boasts a wide variety of
customs and mores.
15
00:01:09,335 --> 00:01:12,930
But perhaps the most bizarre
social patterns
16
00:01:12,972 --> 00:01:16,430
can be found within the small island
community of Manhattan.
17
00:01:16,476 --> 00:01:18,671
Asshole!
18
00:01:18,711 --> 00:01:21,703
The inhabitants of the region
known as the Upper East Side
19
00:01:21,748 --> 00:01:24,683
have the most prosperous,
yet idiosyncratic
20
00:01:24,717 --> 00:01:27,151
social systems
on the planet.
21
00:01:27,187 --> 00:01:28,984
After successfully mating
22
00:01:29,022 --> 00:01:30,819
and producing offspring,
23
00:01:30,857 --> 00:01:33,291
the men are often distant
and uninvolved,
24
00:01:33,326 --> 00:01:35,385
leaving their women
to hunt, gather
25
00:01:35,428 --> 00:01:37,487
and provide for
their families.
26
00:01:40,567 --> 00:01:43,866
Yet the resourceful mothers
of the Upper East Side
27
00:01:43,903 --> 00:01:45,871
have plenty of time
to participate
28
00:01:45,905 --> 00:01:49,204
in a variety of sex-role-
specific activities.
29
00:01:49,242 --> 00:01:53,144
These include
body mutilation,
30
00:01:53,179 --> 00:01:56,478
sacred meditation...
31
00:01:56,516 --> 00:01:58,575
...even fasting rituals.
32
00:02:01,955 --> 00:02:04,822
Which brings us to our focus
on child-rearing:
33
00:02:04,858 --> 00:02:06,621
Who actually does it?
34
00:02:06,659 --> 00:02:09,253
Well, in Africa,
they have a saying...
35
00:02:09,295 --> 00:02:11,923
"It takes a village
to raise a child."
36
00:02:11,965 --> 00:02:14,229
But for the tribe of
the Upper East Side,
37
00:02:14,267 --> 00:02:16,565
it takes just
one person...
38
00:02:16,603 --> 00:02:18,503
the nanny.
39
00:02:24,244 --> 00:02:26,303
Okay, so what's
depicted here
40
00:02:26,346 --> 00:02:28,473
is not a typical
tribal ritual,
41
00:02:28,515 --> 00:02:31,916
but rather the unraveling
of one such nanny.
42
00:02:31,951 --> 00:02:34,545
Actually, this nanny is me.
43
00:02:34,587 --> 00:02:37,351
And why I'm telling off
a teddy bear is the subject
44
00:02:37,390 --> 00:02:39,221
of this field diary.
45
00:02:39,259 --> 00:02:42,990
If by chance my report stereotypes
or geographically profiles,
46
00:02:43,029 --> 00:02:44,826
forgive me.
47
00:02:44,864 --> 00:02:48,163
I'm not exactly
an objective observer.
48
00:02:52,105 --> 00:02:55,131
Master in economics,
minor in communications.
49
00:02:55,175 --> 00:02:58,144
- Yeah!

high honors in business,
minor in anthropology.
53
00:03:06,953 --> 00:03:09,717
So here I am a few months before
the teddy bear incident...
54
00:03:09,756 --> 00:03:10,882
Whoo-whoo!
55
00:03:10,924 --> 00:03:12,414
...a native New Jersey
