If I am so critical with my child's care, my sister-in-law took another dare. I know it's hard enough to raise a child, but it's so much harder if you're a single mother. I am sympathetic, but I could do none. She lives in Ohio and we only get to see her once in a while.
At 18, Marissa gave birth to a beautiful baby girl, although she didn't know who the father could be. It's too late to even track them down, when her boyfriends have already scooted to college. So she's left with no choice but to find a job while the baby stays with her granny. Little by little she's able to provide by working double time. This baby girl is now 7- years old when her granny died.
From her granny, her baby girl was left to a teenage nanny. That's all she could afford while she's taking on the second job. The teenage nanny seemed
pleasant and nice so she didn't worry at all. Until one lazy afternoon, she went home early from work only to see the teenage girl smoking pot in the living room.
She's obviously high with Mary Jane so she asked her to get out and never to come back. From then on, she quit her second job just to stay beside her fragile daughter. If you think this is it, wait 'till you hear this! After two weeks, the teenage nanny came back, this time asking for money. It was some sort of a blackmail. She dares to tell a
social welfare station if Marissa would refuse to consider the deal.
Marissa could not stand to lose her daughter, so she paid and moved in to our place. Right now, my wife helps out in looking after the child. Even with such circumstances, you cannot dare leave a child to a stranger you barely know. Do not gamble, for there are good and bad nannies. Be sure to know the best one.
