i have these kids i babysit for, and i mean theyre okay and everything, but they dont listen!! i dont know what to do, i even take out my cell phone and pretend to call their moms! theres a 8 year old A.D.H.D. boy, a 4 year old girl, and an infant. i get paid 4$ an hour...does that seem like enough for what i have to deal with? (link)
Talk to their parents!You dont have to babysit for them, there are plenty of other opportunities. Tell the parents that you like watching them, but they dont listen to you. See what they say.4$ dollars is soooo not enough. You need more for that kind of responsiblity.Tell the parents that you have worked for them alot and you would like a little more money. If their worth it, they will understand.


Ok so I am 13 years old and I want to start babysitting. I'm not sure if there are laws on how old you have to be (I live in England.) Is 13 old enough? How would I go about it? (link)
I think 13 is an okay age. I dont know the babysitting age limit seeing as i dont live in england. So, you can either start babysitting, or try to find out the limit first. You decide.

hi im 13/f and my mom still wont let me babysit. its rlly embarrasing bc i am 13 but she thinks im not "matture" enough. i feel like im being treated like a baby. how do i get her to let me start babysitting so tht i dont hav to hav a babysitter? thanx ~steph~ (link)
I had the same problem. What I did was talked to my mom about going to a babysitting coarse. Just gather a few friends and sign up. After that she will prob. feel like you ready. Dont be embaressed, it happens to everybody. It just means you mom cares about you, and doesn't want you to mess up while oyu babysitting!

P.S. Check you fire/police station or local hospital for the classes!

I just moved to a new state and i do not know a lot of people and i want to babysit in my spare time. but i do not know how to get the word out that i will be able to babysit?help me please! (link)
Put up flyers in you neighbor hood or around your house. I wouldn't suggest putting them very far from your house, because you dont really want to babysit kids on the other side of town, do you?

is it just plain wrong for a 15 year old straight male to babysit? (link)
NO! its totaly okay. When you were a kid, did you always want a girl babysitting you, or did you sometimes want a guy? see, little boys like bigger guys babysitting them, it doesn't matter!

~jess~


do you think it'll be hard to babysit 2 kids(grl-3)(the boy-6)on the first time ever havin to babysit? (link)
Yeah, i mean im sure you could do it, but thats alot of pressure for the first time. Remember, you can always turn down a job, its your choice not theirs!!!

What can you do with a 7 yr old boy when your babysitting him? Thanx in advance! (link)
I just took a babysitting coarse, and you can take him to the park, or bring over some games or something. See what he wants to do!! (P.S. if you do leave the house, lock the door!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Well I need some advice on eating more healthy and reguarly. I'm only 14 but my mother isn't home at night (she works the night shift and McDonalds) and I am in charge of feeding myself. I will be honest I am a good cook to a point though I could still use guidance every now and then. I have the habit of not knowing what to cook so I will end up just eating watered down cream of chicken and egg noodles which I know is not good for me all the time. I like Salmon really well and eat in quite often but that gets tiring. Lately food has taken over my life. I'm always secretly wondering if I should have eaten that, what will I eat for dinner, I don't have anything in the house I need to go out and get something, and I really hate that. I'm not fat I'm normal for my height and I want to just learn to eat at certain times and just have healthy snacks inbetween instead of cookies for my snacks.

If any of you on here can think of some good well balanced meals please answer. Thanks in advance. (link)
When you have some spare time, go to a book store and check out what they have(cook book wise), I love making food out of my cook books, try to make fun out of it or something!!!

For like the past 4 months I have been having stabbing pains in my knee when I walk up or down the stairs, kneal down, stand up from sitting down, anything that includes bending the knee. Do you know of anything that I could have done to it or things that I can do to make it better? I went to my doctor before and he just told me there is nothing he can do and it made me really mad cause I am sure there is something he could have done but i don't know. Do u know of anything I can do to make it feel better at least? thanks alot for any help, and if you need more info just post it and I will reply again, thanks again. (link)
Okay, I just got surgery on my knee from my knee cap coming out of place, and the legiment that holds it in place tore. It hurt. At the begining,I wore a brase on my knee to keep it strait, and it got a lot better. See if you can find one to wear, or talk to your doctor about getting one. Try to help it as soon as possible, so you dont end up like me laying on the couch all day, write before winter break.

P.S. this happend to me from a cartwheel on a floor beam, and I heard a big pop as I landed, the injury all depends on how you did it.

Hope i helped!! ~Jess~
