[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There's a handful of programs we can use in our area. I allowed my oldest son to do a little switching around when he got bored, so a year with the martial arts program, and a year with a more general program, so long as the space is available, transportation is provided, and the program seems safe and is affordable, I'm open to it. Other than that, it is what it is, unfortunately. The aftercare does get dull, and the women who run ours aren't crazy about going outside; seem to find any excuse to keep them inside. So, I get it but we still have to work within limits. I'm not really interested in an afterschool babysitter because i think it would a) lead to electronics after school; and b) be much less reliable. If they are sick or quit, then what?[/quote] For what it is worth, and I'm not really trying to convince anyone, our teenage babysitters have been extremely responsible. If they have been sick or had a conflict, they always asked a friend to cover for them. There has been a bit of flux as one sitter decides to go out for tennis, or the school play, but it has never been hard to find another local teen to take over a few days a week. [/quote]
