Its that time of the year, an old year ends and a new one will begin in a few short weeks. What threads on this forum stick out in your mind over the last year? What ones were your favorites, what ones made you laugh or angry or think differently? This is just intended to be a fun thread to say goodbye to NSG 2007 :)

acutally, babysitting is also being there "in case of emergency" that's why they are still paid for their time when the baby is asleep.

So wait...when my kids are asleep, the babysitter is no longer babysitting? I suppose I'm no longer parenting when my children are sleeping. So the consciousness of my children dictates my role, and the role of the babysitter? Interesting take on things.
