True, the implications are troublesome, etoile. But I suppose it's considered the "better" alternative to the other parents who just decide to over-feed their kids and buy them violent videogames and useless technojunk instead.
Liam,
Don't embarrass the people that hired you by bringing it up. Just dont expect the same thing next time and that is cool.
So Liam, you are not really being paid to "baby sit" but rather to entertain this mentally challenged kid. How do you feel about that? Are you really doing a job or just playing with someone that you would not normally play with? Do you have things in common with this kid? Intrests? Would you play with him if there was no money involved? It seems that you are really being bought to be a friend to a child whose family has more important things to do...like drink? How do you feel about that?
Sueleen, every now and then you come out with something that I TRULY admire..........come sit by me, darlin
Dame, also very wise advice
My take.......keep the money, and as Dame said don't expect it again.
the famly is not ritch druncks who give no atenchen to there child.the play with him all the time.only one parent was there last night and they need me to watch and play with AV.AV did not miss out on his famly time and he did spend time with them.trust me on this one his parents love him and spend alot of time with him.i go becouse they work at home so i play with him outside insted of him having to be inside all day with mom.AV also loves play with me and calls me his friend.no i have nothing in commen with this kid he loves evry sport out there and i cant stand sports.but we have fun together.i dont know if i would go with out the money but i also would not play with him if he wasnt such a plesher to be around.
So she "works" at home so you watch AV while she is working, but when it came time to pay you she was drunk? What line of work is she in, may I ask. Also, where are the siblings?
Oh, and AV wasn't invited? That is really sad. Think about it.
he was invited.hes 9 tho he dosent want to sit down and talk with them he wants to play.he did go and see his famly for a little bit.
I used to tutor a kid in math.
On my last day (before I had to leave to go back to school) I got a $50 dollar bonus...
$60 is pretty sweet for that amount of time. i've had plenty of babysitting jobs that haven't paid nearly $10/hr.

my sister babysits 2 kids across the street who go to bed at 9 o'clock and then my sister gets to watch satelite tv for about 3 hours and gets paid 7.50 i think.
I usually get $5.00 an hour, Canadian. What is that, 23 cents American?
lol...stupid Canadian Money.
