    That was 20 YEARS AGO ... no way in hell would I do it NOW for that kind of money

    Do not sell yourself short ... I am not sure about Hamilton but in my hometown 12 year olds are making $10-12 an hour to 'babysit' on a REGULAR night out for parents let alone a special premium holiday night.... if you are giving up Christmas time or New Years Eve with your family make sure you are properly compensated for that ... you are an ADULT will additional training and experience and should get paid more than a teenager!!!!
    Children construct their own intelligence. The adult must provide activities and context, but most of all must be able to listen. Children need proof that adults believe in them. Their three great desires are to be listened to, to understand, and to demonstrate that they are exactly what we expect."
