[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it possible to have older kids babysit younger kids?  Do people still use babysitters anymore or do parents just never have moments away from kids outside of regular working hours?

This is an honest question.  I've been fortunate enough to always have nearby family provide childcare for my kid so I don't know what other people do.[/quote]

You think people's Saturday night babysitters are going watch all the kids that need child care on a snow day?[/quote]

If you paid my 16 year old like 80 bucks she'd probably be thrilled to watch 1 or 2 kids for a snow day[/quote]

Cool, you should advertise that. Good babysitters are in short supply.[/quote]

Heck, I'm a teacher and willing to reach out and reserve space at a local library to watch kids if needed but I'm sure plenty of people would jump in with the whole "unlicensed daycare" argument.  They'd probably have an issue with the fact I am a man as well.

I've said it before in this thread, I'm not going to complain about the problem if I'm not willing to be part of the solution.[/quote]

Damn you have a healthy victim complex.

I'd assume a teacher would be offended at being asked to babysit. I'd never ask. You aren't being asked because nobody knows you are willing to do that. [/quote]
