[quote=Anonymous]The only parents I know who had someone else put their kids to bed most nights either weren’t home (a nanny or grandparent who was present) or were trying to get every bit of help they felt they deserved from an AP. I don’t know anyone (even with up to 12 kids) who has ever had an older sibling bathing or doing bedtime for a younger sibling on a regular basis. I do know several families whose older kids insisted on first choice for date night sitting; they were paid the same as non-relatives and had the same responsibilities as a babysitter on those evenings (always bedtime, sometimes bathing), but could go to bed versus staying up until the parents got home.[/quote]
