Sara_Rides Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 I am scheduled to take the motorcycle endoresement class in two weeks and I have a child care hurtle for Thursday and Saturday. I asked my mother, who ALWAYS watches my son when I need her to, and she refused as soon as I told her why I needed a sitter!! Would she rather I take the safety course and be well educated while on my two wheels or just hop on and go for it? UGH!! You would think safety would be first...but apparently not.WTF am I supposed to do? The class is hard enough to get into as it is, I can't just call and ask to reschedule....I get that some parents, relatives etc. just don't get it, but come on.....Anyone have any sitters they could suggest? I've gotta take this class..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redkow97 Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 good point. I'm in Westerville, but I'm willing to travel some if someone truly comes highly recommended...my wife (and then her sister) used to sit for a family in Bexley through college. I'm sure they have a laundry list of sitters on file. And Dana (the mother) probably ran drug tests and background checks on all of them. She's a pretty intense person.I can probably get a hold of her through facebook. You've just got a 3-yr-old right? Anyone Dana used will have proven they can deal with 4 yr old twins and a 6 yr old.

AOW Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 forgive the sexism that's about to be spewed...Man the fuck up! You're an adult so start acting like one. Don't go running to daddy to get mom's mind changed. Have a fucking adult conversation with your mother about her preaching honesty and then punishing you for that same honesty.Tell her exactly what you stated here previously...Would she rather I take the safety course and be well educated while on my two wheels or just hop on and go for it? UGH!! You would think safety would be first...but apparently not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
