Son, I had my first nephew when I was 10, he is now 20... I had fourteen nieces and nephews before I had my first kid at 28. I did the whole babysitting, taking to the park, zoo, church etc with more than four kids in toe and I can tell you this..

All of that pales to the having the sole day to day responsibility of watching *1* let alone *2* kids under five years old. So I'm sorry until you've lived that life you need to realize your station and stop giving advice on something you're clearly not familiar with!

Well said! My younger sister-in-law was the favorite aunt. She was an awesome babysitter for her brothers and sister. Even with some of the more difficult nephews. She would not put up with anything. Then, she had two children of her own. She calls my husband sometimes and seems shocked by some of the things her children try to get away with.

My daughter was "pinged" to confirm how she was raised and got sucked into the debate. Got a problem with that?
