~Crazy World We Live In~

Someone just messaged me on FB about a crazy situation she went through with someone in my babysitting group. I'm the admin of the page and she asked me to remove a babysitter. She sent me text messages showing why... The babysitter sent a text to the wrong person asking for pain pills-she sent it to the mother instead of her friend! The babysitter had her son while texting people about buying pain pills from them. I gladly removed the babysitter since she had a couple strikes against her now, the other things were much more mild but all together not okay. What is wrong with people?

@LovingMyBabies I think that you feel that someone is not good for your kids is surely not good to babysit even the others women kids.

Seriously... Asking to buy pain pills why watching someone's child and accidently Texting the Mom as well. I would find out how to file a report with the Town to see if they can permanently stop her from babysitting before a child is harmed.

@KrauseHome The mom reported the lady to the state. It is so dangerous what she was doing.

@LovingMyBabies Awesome and hope someone does more than just let her babysit kids. Wonder if she is licensed?

That's scary to think of someone babysitting while under the influence of pills.

That sounds seriously unsafe for kids in her care, too.

People do not think of the welfare of the children they are watching.

@JudyEv It comes with headaches that's for sure. But it's not bad all the time.
