[quote=Anonymous]Regardless of the specifics, you are not comfortable with your sitter's common sense. If that's the issue, then you should find another sitter for your children. You say she's an occasional sitter. You don't need to "fire" her, but just find another sitter and stop calling this girl. If she inquires, you can tell her that you want someone with a little more life experience to be watching your children, but chances are, she won't ask. I think that basic common sense is a requirement for caring for someone else's children. One would presume that if the parent gave you instructions for feeding the children, and you did not know what "ham" or "turkey" was, that you would ask the parent to point out in the refrigerator what you are expected to feed the children. Or if a child asked you for a fruit that you were unsure of, and you handed them the wrong one, that you could hand them the correct one without being upset about it. Etc. Just find a new sitter.[/quote]
