Question Posted Friday September 2 2005, 3:03 am

you may or may not have answered this but, i've been thinking of charging my sister money for babysiting her son and i dont know how to ask her. if i ask assirtively she'll get mad and yell at me and not let me babysit her sun and if i ask in a passive yet nice way she'll walk all over me. how can i ask her without her yelling at me or walking all over me.

Hey

Well i don't see why you can't just ask her to her face , without getting worried i mean she is your sister and if she has a baby then i guess shes much more older and mature then you. Next time when you babysite, come up to her and say oh well i was wondering if you could pay me for helping you out. I just really need the money, and all. If not that's alright. BE sure to "smile"! So that way she can't get mad nor walk all over you. If you still don't like that idea then ask your mother to have a talk with her. Tell your mother how you feel and that you love watching her son but you think it's unfair that she doesn't pay you. Then your mother might have a nice talk with your sister and everything should be fine. Also try asking her husband if she has one. Maybe that might be easier for you to do. If that doesn't work you could always just stop watching him, and tell her you get way too tired of watching her son doing, homework, and on top of that your not getting any money out of it. you could always go look for another kid to babysite if anything.


Good luck

I'm sure whatever you do things will work out just fine. After all your family and she loves you and has alot of respect for you already if she trusted you with her son.
