Reply to Training kids to be baby sitters or home alone programs by [deleted]

There are a few different ones, although she may be too young, I think most of them are 11 and up.

Cox Health does this one for $15:

CPR Services of the Ozarks mostly does certification classes, for a variety of careers and costs. They do offer this one as a NON certification course:

Family and Friends CPR $25

Non-certification course for those wanting to learn adult, child, infant CPR and choking management of the conscious and unconscious. NOT A CERTIFICATION- granting course

The YMCA also used to have them, they were long like 6-8 hour classes for kids 11-14 but then each location would have their own guidelines and a lot of them let kids as young as 9 attend. I am not seeing where Springfield Y’s have started back up, but you could always call. I believe their classes were based on Safe Sitter, which also has virtual classes.

If you need evidence, why don’t you go volunteer with those experiencing houselessness and hear their first hand experiences. Otherwise, shut up. This is been ongoing for weeks, and there has been multiple articles of the police forcibly removing these people from the only “home” they have.

You cannot get upset for a land owner wanting uninvited homeless to vacate their land. I’m sure they’ve been warned multiple times.

I believe in equal access to everything as much as the next person, but if people are so hell bent on helping, buy some land and invite them there. Don’t get pissed at land owners for not wanting their property trashed. Give me a break. A lot of solution givers but not one I’ve seen that is willing to share their home/property.
