Teenager with a babysitter

I am a teen and I still have a babysitter. My parents sometimes have to go abroad for a longer time and then they have a babysitter for me. Her name is Sarah and she has been my babysitter for like 6 years now. She is really nice and she always cooks nice things. But she is also serious sometimes and she is big on rules and respect

Even teens need supervision.
@Catzgano Yeah my parents definitely believe that so that's why I have a babysitter

@emilywilliams I was nanny off and on and even during the pandemic when childcare was almost impossible

I feel like so much depends on the family. Some families want their teenagers to still be supervised. Others think they are mature.

@sarah91 When the parents are going abroad I think it's best to have someone keeping an eye on the kids. If anything happens someone has to make the emergency medical decisions.

@Musicman I don' think that's what emily was talking about.
Musicman · 61-69, M
@sarah91 That's what she told me. 🤷‍♂️ Her parents go abroad frequently.

I was staying all alone at home (even during nights) since I was 14... here I am, grown up with NO issue 💋
@absomething Haha I guess all parents are different

So more a companion now than a babysitter? It's nice to know that there is someone around who cares for you 🙂
@SunshineGirl That would be a good name too :)

As a teen you are not really mature enough to be alone for long periods of time while your parents are abroad. Having an adult around is a necessity. Especially if you get sick or something happens to you. She sounds like a really nice person. Having a few rules to follow isn't a bad idea either. If you break one of Sarah's rules what usually happens?

Well how old are you and if you did not have someone with you might get lonaly and afraid at night this way you have some one to talk to and to keep you company and someone that cooks and clean for you . Do not look as it as a babysitter look at is has someone to keep you company.

Depending on your level of maturity your parents seem it necessary especially when abroad.

Do you want this to change?
@biandlargeny I don't know really

That’s cool! I wasn’t allowed to be home alone until I was 16.
Strongtea · 22-25, M
It was really horrible at the time, everyone else was able to do what they wanted it seemed. I’m glad now though, some people from school started drinking, smoking and getting in trouble! 😬@emilywilliams

Strongtea · 22-25, M

Good lessons in life for once you do get out on your own college or work wise, enjoy it while it is still easy for you.
