Hi, I am 12 years old and working on flyers to hang around town and in my neighborhood. I can't think of what else to add, but everything I've said so far is true. Also, do you have any tips on taking care you children?
Here is what I've said so far:

Hi, my name is Cali (I said my last name but I don't want stalkers on here!). I am 12 years old and I am very good with young children and animals. I would love to babysit or take care of your pets while you are away. I have lots of experience with animals, (I own 4 dogs, a cat, an iguana, and many more!), and some experience with children. If you don’t feel comfortable leaving me with your animals or children, my older brother or parents can accompany me. Also, my brother could mow your lawn if you wish. I don’t charge much, and if you are struggling economically I would be happy to charge less or nothing. I am just looking for a summer activity that I can enjoy. I am very mature for my age, (you can ask around, and I’m sure other people would say the same thing), and I would NEVER put your children or animals in any harm whatsoever. I can work flexible hours, if you would like. I’m in honors classes and very smart. I know what to do if a child is choking, and I know what to do in an emergency. I also know how to dress wounds very well. I can cook, and I am good at keeping your kids entertained.

If I were your mother, I would forbid you from handing out flyers all over town. I grew up in a town of 500 people and thought I knew everyone, but there were child molesters and other kinds of abusers living there (I found out later). Please contact only families you know well and who know your abilities. You could end up in a very bad situation if you aren't careful.

If the cat claws my toddler and draws blood while you are babysitting, what would you do?

If the cat claws your child, I would calm the toddler down. Then I would wash the cut off with water, and soak it in hydrogen peroxide. I would then put neosporin on the wound and put a bandaid on it.

If the child continues to cry and thrash around, especially with the application of hydrogen peroxide, and you can't manage anything else, then what?

[calib1720]

My mother would come with me, and I wouldn't knock on people's doors either, I would stick the flyers in people's mailboxes. I would also go only in my neighborhood, no where else.

You had said "to hang around town." What does that mean?

[Wondergirl]

I would stick the flyers in people's mailboxes.

By the way, that's illegal.
