I'm a vegan. I like glam rock and androgynous males. I have two cats. they're mystical beings. I'm going to college in less than a month.

Is there any way of convincing my mom to let me babysit? She says she wants me to wait awhile. She said she would consider it though. Anyway, I would be babysitting with my friend. So she may be more comfortable about that. So how can I convince her to let me? And any ideas about how I could spread my services (if she says yes)?

I would tell her that a friend has invited you to babysit with her (perhaps your friend believes she has her hands full and you'd be a big responsible help). Have your mom then think about it for a little while.

Another idea is church babysitting. It's a large group of kids (though you're never alone) and sometimes it doesn't pay, but your mother will be able to see that you're responsible around children and some of the parents of the kids you would be babysitting will be interested for appointments outside the church group.
