Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
The Flavor podcast Network. You're listening to Staycissura and Charlie's
Off the Record, your record.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
Of the record, and we were talking about a nanny
having to hold a ground. Were the people trying to
talk her price down? Her price was twenty dollars an
hour up to twenty two dollars an hour, depending on
how many kids were there. And it brought out something
for you, didn't it.

Speaker 1 (00:25):
Chat, This is my thing. Okay, So I have children
of my own and I was told a story just
recently that that's really just pissed me off about, you know,
leaving your kids were family members. And you know, we
often we are you know, we are busy with life,
but then we often just leave old kids with family members.

(00:46):
But some of the family members that we leave the
kids with have their own families that are living with
them as well. All right, And this story that was
told to me, Bro, honestly, this was sick had me
sick to my stomach where you know, our family member
got a bit touchy touchy.

Speaker 2 (01:03):
Yeah, oh my god, no, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, oh god.

Speaker 1 (01:07):
So you know that just I said to say, any Bro,
we had this conversation when she came back from tongue.
I was like, Bro, you know, it doesn't matter how
busy we get, Like, I would only trust the kids
with either my brother, your sister, and maybe a first
cousin you know, which is okay. Anything else outside of that, Bro, that's.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
On no go. So you don't do you have the
kids babysit by people that you just sort of know
and you pay them to do it.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
Nah, I would never do that, you know. And the
thought that crossed my mind, to be honest, like, but
after hearing that nanny story, it's sort of triggered me, like, bro,
this is something I really want to talk about where,
you know. And the problem was, especially with some of
these people, is that the families know about it, but
then they just brush it, you know, under the carpet

(01:52):
sort of thing. And it is pretty a touchy and ugly,
you know topic. But I feel that we as parients
just need to be more aware of where we leave
our kids or who we get to and who's the
priority to protect as a child, you know, so we
can we we do need our little time out and
our date nights and things like that, but I think

(02:12):
when it comes to your children, you know, we really
need to be like weary and aware of who we
leave our kids with because some some of the family
members bro they could be the worst. That's the honest truth.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
Well, you need to know exactly who they who who
and how you trust them in every way, and also
you know how comfortable the kids feel. I mean, we
only we've been lucky in that our kids, even when
we've had you know, like ongoing nanny, were actually found
no members and so it works for them as well.
But yeah, no, that's massive high trust.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
And that's my.

Speaker 2 (02:48):
Kids are getting to a babysitting age. And you can
only do it if they're really comfortable and really confident,
I think exactly. And if it's their nature, like if
they're going to be good at it, then they want
to do it, because I don't think it's for everyone.
It's like something you can go, oh, you know, like
this case scenario, ninety nine percent of the time it
will be fine. And that's not the only thing to
worry about. It's just like you know, things can happen
in general.

Speaker 1 (03:08):
Well I'm not saying that it happens, like you know,
with every family member, but all I'm saying is that
we need to you know, eyes up and just be
aware of the surroundings, specially for children, because the worst
thing you want is that when you pick your kids up,
and you know, our kids are so they are so
innocent when it comes to conversations there like it, oh

(03:29):
Auntie or uncle that this scener and you're like what.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
What It's a really heavy copapar. But I think it's
good that you talk about it, because yeah, we just
as I say, it's about protecting the kids most important.
I didn't think you're going to take it there, but
that's what happens sometimes. The record, Baby Total, Charlie Total.
