[quote=Anonymous]This woman is kind of dumb. You can't compare what you were paid 20-30 years ago to what you should pay today. For someone under 14, sure, $5/hour is fine, but at least pay the high schooler minimum wage, and the college student a bit more. Another issue she isn't taking into account is that with the age of helicopter parenting we are currently in the midst of, young teens aren't taught or trusted to do anything for themselves, let alone trusted enough to care for other children. Most parents in this area would sooner pay their nanny $15-$20/hour to watch TV than let a 14 year old watch their kids. Its going to cost more to hire a responsible adult to do the job. $15 for 3 hours ain't gonna cut it. [/quote]
