This weekend I was forced to watch three children, full time. It's painful, and I almost felt like downing a bottle of bleach, but that's beside the point. I got to thinking that instead of hiring babysitters, children should be able to stay home alone at a younger age. Maybe eight or nine would be a good threshold. Children younger than that would need someone to watch them, of course, but anyone older than that can pretty well take care of themselves, no? I could.
Also, I woke up this morning to the sound of my older nephew and niece arguing. Ten mintues later, my niece was laughing and my nephew was crying. This made my day.
