Lucky....

@.@ Dunno if I would say lucky.

yeah, lucky doesnt seem the word for it, i would rather work anyday then babysit

Well you dont have to pay bills and stuff right?

Ehhh now that I think of it I would rather work than babysit...

Especially since I don't get paid. I'm 18, almost 19. I can't go to school and I can't get a job because my parents can't afford babysitting. They always tell me they'll start paying me, but they never do. And even if they did, it'd be something like $10 a week.

I think he means in the sense that you are not under obligation to go to school or work. However, it is the case of the grass is always greener on the other side. He thinks you are lucky because you do not have to work or go to school, yet he doesn't see how trapped you are. You might think that he is lucky because he gets the joys of experiencing school/work outside of the home and you dont see how dreading it is. :)

When I lived at home all I wanted was out, now that I am out, all I want is back in, haha.

Thank You Spirit for the explanation. Yes, its like that, I just cant explain stuff like Spirit can.

Btw let's see how much more til you 19 casue thats almost the same as me.

my parents wouldnt allow for me to stay home all day...they their want me studing or working...it's the "we can to this country for you to have a better life not start out poor like the rest of the people that bearly come from Mexico speech"

hehe spirit has a very good point

Mondays are filled with the work that just couldn't end on a Friday! @_@¬

Ouch... Poor you. I tried babysitting before, and I can't last longer than 3 hours with the kid.
