Who drives the babysitter home?

Anonymous
I always babysat within walking distance of home, and kids dad always walked me home. Always the dad. I was never afraid of any of them, or nervous about any of them, and nothing ever happened.

When I babysat in the 90s, it was always Dad who would drive me home.

My teen DDs babysit only for neighbors and friends who live close by. Either my spouse or I will pick them up.

My babysitter is a lesbian -- does that change your calculus, OP? Lol

Get a sitter within walking distance. If we are going out ion a (rare) date we want to have a couple of glasses of wine.

Yep. I am a lightweight who won't drive even after 1 glass, it just doesn't feel safe.

It was always the dad in my day. We usually do an Uber but we live in the city so its a 5 minute ride.

Dad does but always runs into late night traffic somehow

Did any former babysitters have any incidents with Dad?

Whichever of us was the designated driver for the night, i.e., had just one drink at dinner.

I don’t understand why this would be an issue unless dad is a creep.
