I didn't find it an improvement that our uninvited guests had a car full of empty liquor bottles!”-Katie When I mentioned what happened to the sitter’s mother, she claimed they were just ‘cleaning out’ her daughter’s car. They had polished off the better part of a vodka bottle, and our trash was littered with other empties. “We left our kids, 5, 3 and 2, with one babysitter and came home to three drunken teens. Her defense? ‘He bribed me!’ and I was like, ‘With what? Legos?’” –Christen “We came home at 11:30pm (earlier than we had said we would) to find our 4-year-old up watching TV with the babysitter. We came home the next day to find all the heat turned off, our baby half-naked and the oven on with the door open, all burners on the stove roaring in order to heat the apartment.”-Teri “My husband came home to find our 5-month-old son wearing several shirts, three pairs of pants and a jacket, swaddled tightly in a heavy blanket, sitting in his infant seat in front of a roaring fire, with the thermostat turned up to 85 degrees!
