Children are legitimately a blessing, but they can be a handful and a half at times.
I have three children of my own, and I babysit two others everyday.
It is quite difficult to control all of the teenagers at the same time. The two children that I babysit are quite high strung, and I find them doing things that they should not being doing all of the time, and something that they have been doing for quite some time now is messing with my temperature control. I have tolerated a lot with them, but this is something that I had a talk with their mother about. Unblessedly, the guys have not seemed to learn their lesson yet because I have to typically check the temperature control to make sure that they have not changed it. I found out the difficult way the first time that they were messing with my temperature control. I woke up one day to a easily tepid house. It was over eighty degrees in the middle of July. The guys had turned the heat on. I caught them touching the temperature control the next day and had a long talk with them about it. I have caught them about five separate times since then messing with my temperature control. I try to make sure that I check the temperature control every night, but sometimes, I forget to check, and yesterday was one of those afternoons, and I woke up this day to a warm house once again. I will be talking with their Dad again this afternoon. If the guys keep this up, I will have to refuse to keep watching them.
