[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This reminds me of an educated professional friend who asked me (a SAHM) if I would be her nanny (two kids in diapers) since I was home anyway with two kids in diapers. It would be so easy she said. I scoffed.

She couldn't hold on to any babysitters or nannies, and her work hours were crazy. She offered $10 per hour, it was a few years ago.

I think she never really spent much time with her kids, so she didn't realize how much responsibility and work is involved.

Don't have kids if you don't have time for them.[/quote]

Sahm with the same experience. I would hide the fact that I was a sahm and make people think I did a part time tech job from home. Some parents would be aggressive in trying to make me their low paid slave. [/quote]

I was kind enough to agree to watch a single mom's child after school. It went from one afternoon to almost every afternoon, to her two kids. This woman aggressively tried to turn me into her slave, and was very demanding about it.  :shock:  At that point I put a stop to it firmly but kindly.  There was drama after I put a stop to it. Crazy.[/quote]
