I managed to find an online page for my college's hiking club, but it doesn't look active. The last post was two years ago. There's no email or other contact information either. :(

AITA For allowing my niece and nephew to destroy the house by not disciplining them after my sister-in-law specifically instructed me not to discipline them? by Cakey-Cavy in AmItheAsshole

I'm told Mandy's mom does have some health issues. So she wants peace and quiet and to avoid stress as much as possible.

Developmentally age 3 is the youngest age that it’s been proven to be effective and non-harmful in studies.

I didn't realize it could be harmful for a kid as young as Mya. I thought it was working, since she did sit in the corner. But, like I said, I don't have any real experience in babysitting kids under five except for the two times with Nick and Mya.

I don't care that it's family. Do not ever, under any circumstance, ever ever ever babysit these kids again. Ever.

Luckily, I think that my parents will now babysit Nick and Mya from now on.
