[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I bet it’s the age more than gender. People barely let 16 year olds walk to the store alone around here. [/quote] [b]This but also I think it’s social connections more than anything[/b]. People are most likely to either hire a friend’s child they know well or a vetted adult to look after their kids. Since you guys moved recently, non one knows your son well so they’re not going to hire him to babysit.[/quote] I agree, I think it’s mostly this. I have 2 boys and would be happy to hire a male babysitter, but more likely would hire someone who is known to me through the neighborhood.[/quote]
