Responsibility Fail

Several of you guys know that I do a lot of writing/research on the topics of parenting, pregnancy and child care as a part of my job. This leads me to some interesting and HILARIOUS shit on the Interwebs.

Today, I was doing a child care search about babysitting and sitter ages when I came across the always-so-entertaining Yahoo answers.

Question: Is a 15-year-old babysitter really mature and responsible enough to care for kids? (Well, it wasn't quite that coherent, but I gave you the short/intelligent version.)

Answer:


Yes, getting knocked up at 14 is the epitome of responsibility.

I love my job.

Wow, I'm guessing this person was probably a former guest on Jerry Springer talking about how responsible she was at 14!

Yahoo Answers is classy. If you're 14 and with a kid, I wouldn't call you the most...well educated to make decisions.

Brilliant! I wonder how many job offers she gets when she says that.

Don't even get me started on kids having kids. LOL. Just go to any local mall and you'll see what I'm talking about...

I believe she meant that she babysat an infant when she was fourteen b/c of her maturity level.
