[quote=Anonymous][quote]What is rude to ask parents to make an expenditure they don't want to make and force them to leave their kids (perhaps for the first time) with some random stranger that they call on SitterCity.com or whatever just for three hours or so. I had 4 kids total, one was 2, the rest in elementary. I had a rando sitter quote me $100.00 to sit the 4 of them for 4 hours during BTSN. I said no and brought the kids with me. You should too, without any hesitation. One time I found an AU student who watched them during a Parent Social evening. When I came home, the tub on the top floor of our house had flooded and my 5 y o was crying inconsolably (they weren't used to babysitters.) Didn't do it again until the youngest was 5--but it still was a strain. It's an unfair burden on SAHparents.[/quote] Oh boo hoo. You mean your responsibilities mean you miss out on something you'd like to do? Welcome to every WOH parent's life every day. Fuck off.[/quote]
