Taking care of a kid is not an easy job.
Don’t we all love to mention how taking care of a kid is so complex and that parents need more props? Why is it that babysitting is one of the lowest-paying jobs out there? And usually, only teenagers do it even though they know next to nothing about childcare. I am not saying that teenagers shouldn’t babysit, I am just saying that they should be paid appropriately. However, that is not the case in all of these stories.
While some people are paying less than the minimum wage, others feel entitled enough to say that the person should feel privileged just because they get to take care of their child. I didn’t think I could get any angrier while reading stories don’t he Reddit and thought I was de-sensitized but apparently not. I am surprised that these people thought this type of behavior was okay. However, thankfully none of these people managed to rope in an unsuspecting teenager.
So scroll below to take a look at some entitled parents wanting cheap or free babysitting.

#1 Not only do they have a lot of specifications but they are also paying in pennies.
I can understand some of these specifications but this is a bit overboard, especially when you take a look at the amount of money they would be getting from this ‘job’.
#2 My only question is why?
#3 What is up with no tattoos and caring about someone’s political alliances?
#4 It is free and yet they still manage to complain somehow?
#5 Finding someone to do a job for free is hard? I never would have guessed.
#6 She is not a child and it is her prerogative about how she values her time.
#7 They all ask for so much but give so little in return.
#8 This is why half payment should be upfront.
#9 These people need to cough up a lot more money for this.
#10 Nobody would work for this amount of money, at least I hope so.
#11 Would you trust someone with your baby?
#12 I wonder why she stopped texting.
#13 When nobody will apply for your job so you resort to the newspaper.
#14 They still owe the babysitter and are unwilling to pay.
#15 This person definitely messed up.
#16 This is just getting ridiculous.
#17 Wow, I am honestly speechless now.
#18 That amount is every month?
#19 This is not a babysitter but a personal assistant.
#20 Well, then get those adult friends.
#21 I am just getting angrier by the minute.
#22 I understand that times are hard but that goes for everyone.
#23 That is quite the long list.
#24 This sounds like jail to me.
#25 This person wants the sitter to pay.
#26 That isn’t a whole lot in my opinion.
#27 Atleast, they don’t have a lot of specifications.
#28 I hope nobody does this.
#29 Maybe, think of paying a bit more?
#30 She really isn’t asking for a lot.
