Ok here is what me and my boyfriend keep talking about. last year he paid for his sister to go to school, it was about $1000 dollars and we baby sat once a week for 5 months and I guess he has helped her with a few things (bill wise) here and there and she would not have such a good paying job if it was not for us helping her out, but her is my problem....
I went back to work in June 10. She has watched her 1 to 2 times a week since then, well my bf went on leave for a torn knee so she did not have her from july 10th until this comming friday. So she is going to contiune to watch her 1 to 2 times a week. (most the time only once) until January. In January we were going to put her in day car since I will be going back to collage. My thing is maybe we can have her aunt watch my daughter instead of putting her in daycare. I would like to wait until she is a little over a year to put her in daycare if i can. Right now we are not paying her becaise she owes us. I think by Jan she would have paid us back with all the baby sitting she will do by then but my bf seems to think its not enough. I think we should pay her 70 a week, i will be back to school full time and hopefully working at times so she will have her 3 to 4 times a week but he thinks 120 a month. I think thats paying her too little but he refuses to pay more.
I have not even talked to her about it yet and i watch her child from time to time and never ask for a penny but I still feel like I should pay her more then 120 a month, esp when we would be paying daycare 150 a week most likely. What do you think? Is 120 a month enough when we have done so much? Or should we pay weekly? Or should i just put her in dayare and forget all about asking his sister?
