I did babysit. My favorite was a two year old in a body cast. She had been run over by a car. Loved that little girl like crazy. Most of my spending cash came from my strawberries. I had planted a quarter acre of plants. Picking and selling. One year I thinned plants down, selling starts. That year I made over $2500. Not bad for my own created job and a 14 year old.
I babysat for a family of 4, the youngest two still in diapers, every Friday and Saturday night from the age of 13 until I was 18 and left home. It was $5/night. Once I turned 16 and could drive, the parents would take a week off during the summer and leave the kids with me. They were wonderful people and great kids. Not only did I have spending money, but I had a great excuse not to go out on weekends spending money.
