[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've never understood why people will pay more to have their lawn cut than to have their child babysat. If the lawnmower screws up, you have a cruddy looking lawn for a few weeks. If your babysitter screws up, you could have a dead child. The stakes are so much higher. I can only assume it's because lawnmowing is "men's work" and childminding is "women's work."[/quote] +1,000,000 - Someone pls explain this.[/quote] Ok, I will explain it: There are a lot more people (male or female) willing to spend a couple of hours sitting next to a kid who is playing on a screen, than are willing to do the dirty and tiring job of mowing grass -- especially when it is like 90 degrees out. Additionally, mowing requires equipment. [/quote] This. Babysitting can be fun. Lawn mowing never is. [/quote]
