[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to hire a teen boy to watch my son while out with my daughter. My son was at an age where he felt completely put out by all the 'girl' going ons in our home. But not an adult, no. [/quote] Yes, I would hire a teen boy to babysit but not a male adult. Don’t be afraid to be discriminatory here, OP. First of all, men aren’t exactly an oppressed class. They will be okay even if people looking for childcare discriminate against them. Second, you make decisions based on reality, not on what an ideal world is. For me it’s the same as not letting DD go out at night alone. No, if something happened to her it wouldn’t be her fault, but I’m not about to take a stand by risking her safety. [/quote]
