[quote=Anonymous]A friend asked me if my DD (9) could come over 1x/day to feed her cats / scoop kitty litter. For 3 days (during the school week). She wants to pay DD $10/day. Friend lives 20 minutes away (25 with traffic). So for me, this means I'd be spending 1+ hour driving DD there/from, plus our school days are pretty full anyway because she doesn't get home until 3:30 PM and goes to bed around 7:30 PM. Am I crazy or is this a little obnoxious of friend? She didn't acknowledge anything about how this put the onus on me - someone who has a job and other kids and needs to make dinner, help with homework, etc. I think I'll write back pointing out the driving distance / school day issue and suggest she find someone in her neighborhood. $10 for at least 1 hr of our time (and 45 minutes in the car) seems almost offensive. What is my friend thinking?[/quote]
