[quote=Anonymous]I am a former AP. Back when the stipend was $140 a week. So while it was enough to buy my toiletries and do a couple of outings on the weekends it wasn't much to plan for anything else (travel month etc), so I wanted to do some extra babysitting. The host family refused to lend me the car for that purpose unless it was babysitting for good friends of theirs. Fine, I took the gigs and said no to the other babysitting opportunities. The mom was clearly a rule follower, which is fine of course, I totally get it now that I am a grown up. Then came the summer. The kids were enrolled in a nearby camp and she asked me if I wanted to work there as a counselor ! I said no, I didn't want to be responsible for so many kids and I remembered she was against it in the first place. I guess she wanted me to keep an eye on the children there as well there, I will never know.[/quote]
