Our governor shut down our restaurants, but you can still get carry out. So for instance, you can go into a Qdoba, order, get your food, and leave, but you can't sit there and eat it. And Chilli's can stay open, but you have to do carry out, if that makes sense.
I know a section of a local library is open, but it is used for voting early for the Spring elections starting to today to April 5th. Rest of the Library is closed.
A mere sock would defeat them :O
If anybody wants to swing by and watch it, feel free too
I think your price is really good. My oldest babysits her siblings and we don't pay her. We are mean.We still have to print our stupid Friday hot lunch papers, and field trip papers.Everyone complains about that. Lol
I would never accept that from anyone! Can do me a favor though and ask your oldest what they would charge?. I’m very curious.
Tell them- “be home with an almost 10year old, paid cash for minimum of 3 weeks, use of WiFi computer and printer if needed, 2-3 hours of uninterrupted time to do their own school work, all favorite drinks, food, snacks provided (I would get delivery for lunch and dinner as long as it’s available)..us of basketball court, trampoline, soccer/baseball equipment anytime other than the mandatory online-school time- make sure my kid is on the computer during that time.”
T doesn’t really need someone to watch and entertain him, I’m just not comfortable with him being home alone...so want someone at the house or in the yard. I realize that’s still “babysitting”, but I don’t know.. to me $200-$250 per week sounds fair.
My neighbor paid her once and it was $20 for a couple of hours.
None!!! That is highway robbery.I have high school freshman and sophomores asking for $500-$750 per week to be at home with a 10 year old... and adults who are acting like this is totally normal and acceptable.
I’m not over the top stressed yet, but I feel like I’m in an alternate universe.
I want to know how many young adults brought home $750 per week after taxes from their job during school, while having all meals provided, and allowed to do your own personal work during that time.
It is a hard transition for sure. I was scared as heck my first year.
^^^^ This
I agree. I think it’s crazy to ask $10-$15 per hour for a 45hour week while they’re doing school work, and can’t go anywhere anyway.

My parents worked when I was younger. I remember being home alone at 10. I was responsible and I know T is from how you describe him.
Normally I'd say don't do it but T is very responsible and he'll be fine just make sure he has snacks and a chore list
I got my first babysitting job in 5th grade
