Babysitter and Kids: Threat

Threat

By fuck you, kid - 16/07/2014 18:56 - Australia - Brisbane

Today, I babysat a 9-year-old kid for the first time. The moment his parents left the house, the little shit looked me dead in the eyes and let me know that if I didn't let him do whatever he wanted, he'd tell his parents that I touched him in his "no-no place". Suddenly I hate kids. FML

Today, I babysat a 6-year-old boy for the first time. When I said it was his bedtime, he just screamed "Eat a dick!" at me. I was so shocked, all I could do was leave him be. When his parents returned, I had to make up an excuse for why he was still awake and watching TV, to save my pride. FML

Today, I babysat an 11 year old kid while his parents ate out. As soon as they left, the kid asked me if I wanted to be on the sex offender's list. Before I could even process that, he told me to stay out of his way and he wouldn't accuse me of anything. FML

Today, I was babysitting a little boy for the first time. He kept using all sorts of profanity toward me the whole evening, so I told his mom when she picked him up. She just grunted and muttered, "Fucking cunt-ass snitch." FML

Today, I babysat a 10-year-old and we played Pokémon. It was my first time playing, so he showed me. I ended up winning and the kid started crying and told his parents he hated me. They decided not to pay me for the night, and now I'm out of a job. FML

Brat era

By bastards - This FML is from back in 2014 but it's good stuff - Netherlands - Den Haag

Today, I babysat the brattiest and most foul-mouthed 8-year-old I've ever met. After I survived three hours of it, his parents finally came home. He claimed I'd invited a boy over and that we did "stuff" on the couch all evening. They believed him. I didn't get paid, to say the least. FML

Today, I babysat a 10 year old from hell. She kept insulting me, saying I have tiny boobs, that boys must hate me, and that I'm ugly. I eventually got fed up and put her to bed. When her parents came back, she ran out of her room in tears and told them I'd beaten her. They believed it. FML

Today, I babysat a kid who was such a bratty little prick that I actually considered walking out on the job. After his mom finally got home 4 hours later, he called her a slut. When he got in trouble for it, he claimed that I taught him the word. Needless to say, I didn't get paid. FML

Today, I was babysitting a boy who was 11 years old. He told me that he loved me and wanted to be my boyfriend. I told him that I think he is a really great kid but I'm 17 so it would never work out. He said okay. When his parents came home he told them that I hit him and started crying. FML

This boy

By GirlinGreen - 30/04/2009 01:34 - United States

Today, I was babysitting a four year-old. He was mad and began hitting me. I told him to use his words not his fists when he's mad. He then began telling me how much he hated me, and that I should go die and never come back. FML

Today, I was babysitting a 4-year-old, and we decided to play a game of hide and seek. Before he started to count, he looked me in the eyes and said that if I hid in his spot, he'd murder me with a knife when he grows up. I have to babysit this kid for the rest of the summer. FML

I would tell him to say it again, but record it. Then show that to his parents. Similar situation happened to me and that worked out. Just don't openly show the phone is out, pretend you're texting.

Got this with nine comments lol... This all depends on what he plans on doing...if it's just something basic like watch TV then let him do so

No, because then he learns that he can lie and manipulate to get what he wants.

Uh... no. That means he got away with it, and is likely to do this again to other people. Someone in this kid's life has to take him down a peg and show him that it's absolutely unacceptable to a) blackmail people and b) accuse innocent people of criminal behaviour as a form of revenge.

#12, if you raise your kids that way then the kid controls you more than you control them. Even if you don't know it.

Tell the parents right away. Sounds like the kid has a history of pulling this kind of stuff

I'd get the parents home and leave. This kid knows what can get someone in trouble. Shame he doesn't know about repercussions.

Doesn't know about them *yet*. I have a feeling he's about to learn though.

And that's why I carry a tape recorder with me wherever I go. Because I deal with bs like that too often. I suggest you do the same. You should be able to easily find an app for your smartphone. good luck.

I'd just call them up, let them know their kid's going to frame you.

Call the parents and say as a heads up their kid is basically threatening you. Then tell the little shit he gets nothing but steamed cabbage and has to read textbooks.

Tell him that's fine I always recorded every babysitting job I go to for security reasons.

Wth? There would be no "next time." Call those parents back right away and tell them you won't watch their manipulative demon seed. I wouldn't even waste time trying to get him to repeat it for a recording. That's your freedom he's screwing with. I know 2 people who have had to defend themselves in court because of a pissed off ex and a devil brat who decided to tell stories like that. I wouldn't care if I had to drag that brat to wherever the parents were at and drop him off.
