More and more guys are babysitting according to the following article and the Flocabulary video for this week. The following article's title is "More Boys Getting Into The Babysitting Business". The writer supports his argument by going out and interviewing a boy babysitter and also interviewing a mom that hires a "manny." This article has influenced me because I have just picked up a babysitting job for a family at my church. It's a great way to make some extra cash and not have a set schedule. If I'm unavailable for a night, they will find someone else. It's also fun watching the children because they are great kids, so I'm getting paid for having fun. Also, I'm currently going to be going to school to be a teacher, so it will give me an extra chance at learning how to work with children. It's like a dream job. The article makes me wonder how most people feel about male babysitters. The author could've taken a poll and seen if the majority of the public agree with male babysitters or if they should just stick with females. The author also could've asked some of the kids how they feel about having a male babysitter instead of a female one. It would be neat to see their perspective. Other than that, I think it's great to show that males can take up female roles.
