[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This just happened to my son, who was pet sitting and watering gardens. Only paid 2.50 a visit, when we were there for at 40 minutes. He's a minor, so I helped, but I was stunned when she handed me the $$$.[b] I gave him an $20,[/b] along with the $10, which was for 4 visits. Your daughter was taken advantage of, clearly. [/quote] This is the problem....kids today know they don't really have to work because Mommy will come along and supplement their income. Really, PP, do you expect to help out your son like this for the rest of his life? In my teens in the late '60's and early '70's I baby-sat for $.50 an hour and was happy to have the job. I busted my butt doing all sorts of tasks after the kids were in bed because I wanted the family to hire me again. My friends were doing the same thing and we competed to see who could have the most clients. We knew that none of our parents would be supplementing our income.[/quote]
