[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A teen under 18 is not going to get hired at any real part time job for $20/hr, so why would you pay this for babysitting? The most they could hope for at any other job would be $15, plus they get taxes taken out. $15 cash per hour a suitable wage for a teen[/quote] My 16 year old absolutely makes this food running at her restaurant job. And she prefers it to babysitting because babysitting is irregular and parents are so flaky! They think nothing of asking you to hold a date a month in advance and then canceling the day before. It’s shocking how often it happens. My teen would not babysit for less than $20, and also won’t babysit for someone who has canceled twice without paying. [/quote]
