Babysitters

I have a 3 year-old daughter and without babysitters there would be times where she would just have to come along.



Obviously she can't come everywhere with me because it's just not looked at as the right thing to do for certain functions. If I brought her to class with me or took her to work I'm sure everyone would look at me like, what is he doing, doesn't he know that he can't do that. If I ask my daughter what she would want to do, she would love to come along with me everywhere I go. That is why I try to include my daughter in everything I do.



My daughter has a babysitter whose name is Barbie, she is one of the nicest old ladies that anyone could meet. But there is also a problem with that, she is to nice and just gives in when my daughter wants or doesn't want things. So I am sure you know where I am going with this. Even though people need babysitters sometimes they can teach kids the wrong things at times. I know Barbie doesn't want to teach my daughter bad things but sometimes she does. I have talked to Barbie about not giving in to my daughter so often but try telling that to Grandma and actually have her listen. That's what Barbie is to my daughter, a Grandma. So obviously I know my daughter loves Barbie so I just can't stop taking my daughter to Barbie's house.

That's why when school started this year for my daughter, even though it is only two days a week, I was excited. It gives my daughter a chance to get away from Grandma and have to listen; and not always get her way. This has helped tremendously with the behavior that my daughter use to show when she didn't get her way. My daughter finally realizes that even though she is cute, she can't always have her way.
