Question

Hi, When I was a child/teenager, I used to babysit and eat there without permission. What should I do?

Answer

Hello,

There is an amount and types of food that are commonly accepted for a babysitter to take.

For what you ate when you were older than 12, you should pay.

For what you ate before the age of 12, there is no legal obligation to pay, but it is proper to pay for what you specifically remember eating.
