I KNOW EXACTLY HOW YOU FEEL.. WHEN I JUST HAD MY DAUGHTER I HAD NO PROBLEMS GETTING A BABYSITTER BUT WHEN I HAD MY SON NO ONE WILL WATCH MY CHILDREN . MAYBE FOR A HOUR BUT THAT ABOUT IT. MY MOTHER USED TO TAKE MY DAUGHTER EVERY WEEKEND BUT NOW THERES TWO SHE WILL ONLY TAKE THEM IF ITS A SPECIAL EVENT . SHE TAKES MY DAUGHTER FOR A WEEK AND WONT MY SON. I DONT GET IT. BUT THERES NOTHING I CAN DO.. MY FIANCES SISTER WATCHES THEM LIKE ONCE EVERY COUPLE OF MONTHS I HAVE TO PUT THEM TO SEE FIRST BEFORE I CAN GO OUT. BUT ITS A VERY RARE THAT ANYONE WILL WATCH THEM. EVERYONE SAYS WHEN THEY ARE OLDER THEY WILL TAKE THEM BUT NOT NOW. MAYBE TRY ONE OF THOSE BABYSITTER THINGS THE STATE HAS? MAKE SURE THEY HAVE REFERENCE AND MAKE SURE YOU CHECK UP ON THE REFERENCES TOO .
