[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid is 13, CPR trained, and makes $15 an hour.[/quote] Interesting. My kid is 12, CPR trained, and I hire a sitter for him. Can't imagine who in their right mind is hiring a 13 yr old to watch their kids. CPR training means next to nothing--I've been CPR trained for 35 yrs, and done it exactly 0 times. Roughly average number of times people are called upon to actually perform if they're not medical professionals. Most young children aren't having heart attacks, which tends to be the leading cause of requiring CPR.[/quote] This. Let alone paying $15/hour. Does your kid only babysit for neighbors on the street? I could see maybe having my next-door-neighbor's 13yo come for two hours while I went half mile away to have dinner and probably would pay them higher than normal just to be nice to my neighbor. Not saying you're making it up, just saying I would think this is not the norm.[/quote]
