BABYSITTING :

Posted by: Berlin Fritz on 11 May 2005

I've often thought that if I myself were a parent I would never want to allow a non parent to look after my kids. Though as a kid myself I did actually babysit a lot, I suppose that's different, innit ? A great majority of people I know and have known over the years who come from various backgrounds and nationalities/countries all (in a nutshell) are/were serious pissheads, so I suppose one advantage to me not being a parent is that I don't have to prove myself by getting into their league of drunkenness & social inadequency on a regular basis, Sad as it may be innit.

My best mate has just his gf of 3 months up the duff.

He's talking about making me a godparent and is insinuating that part of this "role" includes babysitting for when he wants to go out with his gf.

My answer to this is, don't know nothing about babies and there isn't a snowballs chance in hell of me looking after something that is less than about 6 years old! I'm certainly not changing undergarments that contain something akin to toxic waste!

Ghah! The nerve of some people!

Have you heard the Jack Dee monologue when he talks about meeting his new babysitter - a young girl of about 15 years old - "She wore glasses so she must be ok then". Big Grin

If he actually stays together with his girl, and they go the whole show, which I certainly hope they will do & can, and obviously be very happy, You'll/they'll find that their whole 'Circle of 'Friends' will change, and possible conflicts start between family members (Grannies etc) . Hopefully they have their own place, and can get on fine with new friendships/associations that usually involve lots of other similarly aged babys, innit. Big Grin
