My Neighbor Refused to Pay My 73-Year-Old Mother for Babysitting, Saying She Was ‘Just Sitting at Home Anyway’ – So I Stepped In

My mom agreed.

She even wrote “Claire babysitting” and the amount neatly into her notebook. She went out and bought crayons, fruit snacks, and little toys so Lily would feel comfortable. She was excited.
