I don't know what you would put this under. but I am in a crisis people. haha I have to babysit a 2 year old on Saturday with my dad who wouldn't care if he got run over by a truck. The child is wild. He is my nephew and I have to baby sit him for 5 hours. 7:30am to noon. What can I do to keep him under control. Sorry if this is a stupid question but I am nerved wreched. No smart remarks either/ thanks in advance.
SUNKiiSSEDSECZii answered Monday September 19 2005, 6:34 pm: Hmm...well i have three baby cousins (Almost 2) and they can be wild too. Does he like Barney? Well, if he does go to www.barney.com and play him a few songs and stuff. You can also try playing a game with him like Ring-Around-The-Rosie or something. Also you can put in a video like Barney or something fun like that.
Dakmor answered Monday September 19 2005, 5:51 pm: Ouch. This is like when my friend's mom had to babysit little 5 year old John Stamos from Full House (twenty years before he was a star) and he was the wildest guy in the world. One job, and boom. No mpore sitting for John. I'd call her to ask what she did if I weren't supposed to be doing my homework right now---I mean... er... the phone lines are down or something like that. Or I have cholera. Something like that. But whatever. Try telling your uncle that you can't sit for him because he's too wild. Or if you have no conscience (people with no consciences are evil!) then you could make movie plans with your b/f or best friend and then claim that you've had those plans for weeks. Actually, no, even people without consciences would start to feel guilty. Go with the first one and be honest. That's all I can say... I'm sorry I couldn't help more. Good luck, hope I helped!

xoBrowneyes answered Monday September 19 2005, 4:31 pm: Try putting on one of his favorite movies. Play games with him and put on some music. Maybe cut pictures out of a magzine and paste then on paper to make him a book of his favortie things. Never let him out of your sight. Who knows what he might do just have fun and think about how much money you are making. Clair [ xoBrowneyes's advice column | Ask xoBrowneyes A Question ]
frenchfries21 answered Monday September 19 2005, 4:24 pm: try to get him to watch tv with you and have a time to have him eat something. theres not much you can do to keep him under control if he wants to be wild. just maybe try to read to him and get him to play with toys... thats about all i can think of. good luck! <3 [ frenchfries21's advice column | Ask frenchfries21 A Question ]
