[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, do you think you can get a room mate?[/quote]

Seriously? Is everyone going to focus on the fact that this adult woman is living alone? We do not know OPs circumstances. Nor do we need to. Her argument has merit whether she lives alone or not.[/quote]

No, if you want to live alone that is a luxury. It is a luxury afforded by education and hard work. If you want to be a nanny, which is her choice, for the lack of any official requirements, no degree needed, no training or barrier to entry, easy work, flexible hours, etc etc then don't expect to be making the same as a teacher with a masters. A "living wage" does not mean a house, an iPhone, the fastest tier of internet and 400 cable channels, and a 2010+ car. It means a roof (probably with roommates), basic internet with no cable, a flip phone, and transportation in some fashion (old car, bike, metro pass, etc.)

Just because you can't afford the latest and greatest everything does not mean everyone else is holding you down. You take kids to the park for pete's sake! You warm up milk and watch Maury while kids take a 3 hour nap. And you have the nerve to complain about $15-20 an hour. My God....[/quote]
