Subject: Should they pay me when they’re on vacation?

Of course I’ll be available when they return. Why wouldn’t I be? And what does that have to do with anything?
Are you really this stupid?
Why are you so mean? Does it make you feel better to belittle others? Have you never needed assistance with any topic in your life? Try to be a uniter, not a divider. And certainly never teach your children or charges to behave in such a cruel way.
OP, what the pp (probably the mean one) was saying is that guaranteed hours goes both ways, you guarantee availability and they guarantee pay. If they don’t want to guarantee pay then it is unfair for them to expect you to guarantee availability. You have guaranteed hours, which translates to guaranteed pay. They likely are not questioning whether I or not to pay you as it is already in your contract and I’m sure they understand what that means. You could ask them if they plan to pay you prior to their vacation or after, that will reinforce your expectation of being paid.
Op here. Thank you for the clarification

My family doesn't pay me for the two weeks they are on vacation. It's garbage. I should not have agreed to it.

The PP was saying yes - they have to pay you or you should quit immediately. Calm down, OP, the poster was on your side.

Yes, of course they have to pay you. That is what guaranteed hours means.
