I recently babysat for one of my husband's coworkers for a few days. After seeing a few warning signs, I'm beginning to think that the children are not being taken care of and that she may be abusing them.

This woman brings the children out in freezing weather with no jackets. She drops them off with no supplies. The children don't appear to have been bathed. They have severe, untreated diaper rash which leads me to think they're not being changed like they should. I've also noticed bruises on one of the children. It could be from bumping something, but from the look of the bruises I suspect the child was hit. When I feed them, they act like they haven't been fed in a while.

I've tried talking to her, but she told me it was none of my business. I'm worried what might happen if I don't do something. Should I call social services and report my suspicions? (link)
i may be only 13 but you really sould call the cops to come out and take a look and say have them tell the mom a naghbor has noticed for a long time.

Okay, this may not seem like a problem, but I started babysitting for this one family this summer. They have a pretty big house and good jobs, so it's not like they are poor. I think they overpay me though. I know I shouldn't complain, but they paid me $40 for watching a 4-year-old and a nine-year-old from 6-11pm....and they pay me $100 a week to watch the 9-year-old while they are at work during the summer....watching the nine-year-old basically consists of watching tv or watching him play nintendo or watching him fish. it's not a hard job, and I enjoy it...should I say something about the high pay, or just take it as them appreciating me and being nice? I don't want to get more than I deserve.... (link)
well it is a tough one but tell them that you think you are to young to be getting 100 dollars for babysitting i mean they could just take them to a day care but then again they probley trust you better that a daycare and they are willing to give you the regulare fee of a real daycare and they apperciate you taking your time for theyre kids so just ask if you are putting them in any kind of money situation were they need the money but dont want to quit paying you.

I'm babysitting this demand child. How can i get her to shut up?! Omg. shes so annoying. please help
(link)
if you cant handle the child you are babysitting them sit down with her mom and talk to her about the issues that are going on because you are the babysitter and the child needs to know that.

hey, ive been trying to babysit my neighbor forever. my mom has been asking them for me to babysit. i mean im going into the 8th grade.. im deffinetly old enough by now. shouldnt there be a reason why there avoiding it? (link)
well somtimes it depends on alot of things like what they see you doing when theyre kids are around or age is a very big issue to so just show them you are very reasponsalbe and talk very perfestional.

abercrombie13


p.s. try sitting down with the parents and tell them you are very reasponsable and ask them why they are avoiding you to babysit theyre kids.


I lose my temper a lot when i am babysitting. I am making good money, but this girl is so annoying. I dont get that mean, but I just want to tell her to SHUT UP. I try to be nice and act interested in what she is saying, but she drives me crazy!

Does that make me a bad babysitter? (link)
of coarse not! i am 13 and it is my first time to babysit kids that i don't know that well and the girl is a handfull to but somtimes you just have to tell her you are not that intressted in what she is saying, let her know you are the babysitter you are the audlt and if that doesn't work than have her mom talk to her (not her dad her mom will understand better)
