[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have 5 kids and have never paid more than 25 an hour for a babysitter. You have to try a lot of people and cast a wide net but eventually you get enough regulars to manage.[/quote] Let me guess - you live in panhandle Florida or Missouri or Ohio?[/quote] Boston, Massachusetts[/quote] Boston is crazy high for childcare costs. I have 3 kids and a partner so no sitter for Saturday night girls' night needed. We pay $20/hour for a sitter on date night. We have a housecleaner and a clean house. I don't get why you would paint a parent of 3+ kid as some Super Nanny castoff who has no interests. If you aren't a kid person, fine, but I feel bad for your lonely kid. Did it ever cross your mind that some parents enjoy parenting? They enjoy the messy stuff? The mindless stuff? Maybe we feel bad for you that you seem to think it's beneath you to enjoy your own child? [/quote]
