[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think I’d call you to tell you this, but yes I would expect a babysit to try and engage. Ask the kids if they want a snack, need help with homework, want to play a board game. She probably got paid at least $20/hr. She could have made an effort. But it isn’t a big deal. Just tell your daughter the feedback and move on [/quote] NP here. This is what I would expect for a normal babysitter. I may ask sitter to play board games with kids or make them a snack. This was a last minute request for a half day. I would just want my kids alive and tv prob would be ok. It sounds like the purpose of the sitter was to prevent tweens from fighting. I have a friend whose 12yo and 10yo fight constantly so they don’t leave them home alone. We would not have gotten a sitter for our tweens at that same age. They could just stay home alone and be fine for an afternoon.[/quote]
