Hey, to each their own…

My philosophy in life is that as long as you’re not hurting anyone in any way, you’re free to do whatever you want!

A woman named Allison posted a video on TikTok where she responded to another post where a woman talked about normalizing babysitting as a job for adults.

Allison said, “Can we normalize babysitting as adults? Because I’m 38 years old and I still babysit on a regular basis because I am making bank. Okay?”

She continued, “I got an email a couple months ago from one of my regulars and she said, ‘My husband and I wanna go away for 24 hours. Do you think you could watch my 10-year-old and my 13-year-old for 24 hours?’ And I said, ‘Yes, that works for me.’”

Allison continued her story and added, “And she said, ‘Great. Does $500 sound fair?’ Yeah. Yeah, that works for me.”

That’s pretty darn good, don’t you think?!?!

And this is how people responded.

One person who is an adult wants someone to babysit them.

Another TikTokker is all in on this idea.
