    When he is 24 and you are 20, it will be great, but you are 12
    16 minus 4, so at 12, no you would not even be dating and it is certainly too young to be involved with a 16 year old.

    If your saying your attracted to your babysitter, its not unusual. Younger females often are attracted to older males. I do question the wisdom of leaving you unchaparoned with a 16 year old though. Talk to your mom.

    That's not what I was alluding to. It was the adults decision to trust a 16 year old boy, to watch a 12 year old girl. The fact she has a crush on him makes it a lot dicier, and I hope they can make better arrangements. Just me though, I tend to be protective of young females. (older ones too) I am not comfortable with this arrangement.

    If he is responsible enough to be trusted to babysit, he's hopefully respnsible enough to not take advantage of it. At 12, you are still on the young side to be considering boy-girl relations.

    No, we are in today's society where children are childrn and should not be trying to be adults yet.

    Hopefully your mom will not be allowing improper time together

    I'm wondering why you are interested in the 16 year old when you say you already have someone you like at school? You asked if 4 years was too much so that shows your interested in him.

    As for the part about "Keeping up with mom?" I am wondering if you are trying to model your life after your mother...

    This is a big problem. You and your mom both noticed this guy staring at you? You are attracted to him? It's possible he's attracted to you.

    I agree with Talaniman. You should tell your mother asap. If she doesn't see any problem with it, then that's her choice. But if I were her, I'd exercise caution. Talan, as usual, is 100% correct.

    First, it would help to understand you if typed in real sentences. Second, if you are commenting on someone else's comments, it would help if you quoted those comments or addressed the person.

    I don't know if your remark about the 18th century was directed at me, but kids are being pressured to grow up WAY too fast these days. They are being thrust into making relationships that they are not emotionally able to handle. So, I repeat, at 12 years old, you are still a bit on the young side to be considering boy/girl relationships. You will be surprised how much you can grow in just the next two years.
