Girls, a witch has turned a boy into a frog, and to turn him back you have to kiss him. The witch doesn't like it and asks 10 dollars...?

Yes you are most definitely getting ripped-off! If I were you I would come up with a contract that says what your duties include, how many hours per day, and the amount due and when. A nanny who cares for 5 children full time should be paid no less than $500 per week.

I'm sure if you try to find other work your employer will find out what a great deal she was getting.

You definitely are... $8 is usually for 1 or 2 kids. People usually pay $8-$12 per kid per hour, and depending on ages it increases. I would ask for a minimum $15 or $20 per hour ($3/4 dollars per hour per kid).

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
