LOL....I never bad mouth the babysitters because some are excellent. My daughter....yes I am biased , is nearly 13 and she has been babysitting for nearly a year. She takes a bag, sometimes a box, of art and craft supplies and games and activities to do with the kids. She has obviously been trained well BAHAHA but she knows I'd open a can of whoop ass on her if I found out she was sat on her ass doing nothing. Also the babysitters I've had for my kids always did the same. I don't think I am better than any decent babysitter. The service I provide is just above and beyond the expectations of a babysitter where I believe I am an extension of the family with regards to the care I give being that of a family member, versus a casual person to offer temporary respite just meeting the requirements of "keeping an eye on them" or "watching them for a few hours"
