OK so story is that my DD regularly babysits. It’s her only source of income (16). Her friend is going with her as sleeping after for a day out tomorrow, does she split the cash? Thanks

Is her friend looking after the children too? I'm surprised the parents are allowing it tbh. If she's just there, then no, she shouldn't split the cash. If the friend helps, then yes

No not looking after the children, just there. Why would they not allow it? They know her well enough and know she’s sensible.

Nope, it's her job. Tell friend to sit down while she sorts the kids. Make sure parents have been asked tho

The parents offered for her friend to come with her, she puts kids to bed and sorts the bedtime stories etc. Thanks for the advice Smile
