How can I convince my parents to let me skip babysitting to hang with my friend?

Me and my friend have been trying to hang for the longest time and we were gonna have a sleepover at her house this Thurs-Fri. my parents were ok with it till they found out my neighbors wanted me to babysit their kids both thurs and fri. how can i get out of the babysitting?

Answer #1

If you or your mom already told the neighbors you can babysit, than you do that and see your friend a different time. My mom always tells me “you can’t say no to babysitting often unless you want to loose your buisness.” Which is very true, eventually, if things keep coming up and you cannot babysit, they will stop getting you and find a new sitter.

Answer #2

There’s always another weekend, Plus if you aren’t staying there and babysitting all night have her come over a little later, Or maybe see if she can stay at the babysitters house and after the kids go to sleep, watch movies and stuff.

Answer #3

Just babysit and make some money so you and your friend can hang out the next weekend and go shopping or something.

Answer #4

I agree with everyone else. It’s important to keep your word to babysit, or your parents word at least. Because, if it were you, and you planned on going to a wedding and your babysitter cancelled last minute, you’d be stuck at home missing somethng important. Put yourself in their shoes. You can hang out with your friend whenever. Make more time for her.

Answer #5

Well they already said they would let you & they should just tell the neighbors your going out on those days they should understand.
