[quote=Anonymous]We have an occasional evening babysitter - a college student born and raised here (so it is not a language thing) - that seems confused about basic things. For example, the kids told me when we leave instructions about the dinner to feed them while we are out, she gives them something else first. When they point out the error, she says she didn't know. She didn't know the difference between ham and turkey and she also gave my son a nectarine when he asked for an apple. When he corrected her, she got really upset and asked how she was supposed to know it wasn't an apple. She also refuses to walk with the kids to the park and insists on driving them so she can use her GPS even though she has been there several times and it is just a couple of blocks away straight down the street. Am I being too nitpicky for thinking this is really odd? It makes me wonder what else she doesn't understand and whether she could somehow create a danger if she mistakes common things.[/quote]
