We have a 14 year old who lives nearby and when we are away one weekend each month (by neccesity) he walks our two dogs. They live out in a kennel by day and are brought into the house laast thing at night. It wasn't always the way, they did used to be in all day but they are sometimes prone to bouts of incontinence in their old age and it was all i could take to come home after the weekend to find shit literally everywhere because said teenager couldn't clean up properly.
So previously to make his job easier we said spend time at our house doing homework or watching tv if you like so the dogs have company and you can give them the time they need to do their poos etc but now he really doesn't need to be here at all and without saying that exact phrase u have given very exact instructions about what he needs to do.
SO to cut a long story short, he gats 15 quid a daywhich i think is very fair. Thats 40 quid for his weekend. Anyway first weekend i came home to find empty beer can in shower and reports from nieghbours that his pal was up on our roof 'playing a game?'
Had words with teen that this was not on.
Now when i came home i've opened laptop to find he has been on here chatting to folk and christ knows what else. I feel given its a personal laptop with lots of personal stuff on it he shouldn't have helped his self. It was closed and switched off when i left.
I'm well pissed off, AIBU?
