Do you know how to babysit? Here is something about how American children babysit. Many American children learn to babysit by helping their parents take care of their younger brothers or sisters. When they get older, they may want to become babysitters. And by the age of 13, they may be ready to do so.
Schools and organizations often provide courses on babysitting. However, nothing is better than experience. Teenagers can work as parents' helpers and look after young children. They can observe(观察) how the parents talk with their children and they get to know the children before babysitting them.
In America, if the child is interested in becoming a babysitter, the parents will emphasize(强调) the responsibility for taking care of someone else's children. When he or she is asked to babysit someone, his or her parents help him or her plan the schedule. So he or she still has time for other things, for example, homework.
