!!! UPDATE: AIO for demanding to be paid after wearing something inappropriate to babysit

Hi! So this is an update to the post I made last night about a babysitting fiasco. First of all, I had no idea it would blow up like that, from the bottom of my heart, I am so grateful for every single person who took time out of their day to write out a reply, it truly was so helpful!!

If you didn’t see that post, I’m Mae, I’m 15, and a parents I was babysitting for refused to pay me because they found my outfit inappropriate.

Around the same time the post started to blow up, my mom sent out an email to my neighbor/the mother, she never got a response, which was not very surprising, as they do not get along very well due to opposing political beliefs and religions, etc (my mom is jewish, she’s very catholic). A lot of people suggested taking my neighbor to small claims court, but where I am at, the price of even filling a claim is half the money I would have made, as well as the fact that we live in a small town and my neighbor is a huge member of her church and very ‘popular’ (not really sure how to phrase it in a non highschooler way haha) so it just would not have been worth it.

Anyways, I sent another text, got a response, etc etc, and the rest of the story is included over the texts. Again, thank you so so much for all the kind words.

(Side note: a lot of people have asked where I got my tanktop, its from brandy melville, the “skylar stripe lace tank”!!)
