Isn't it technically double standards

In the first post, the only reason OP isn't a asshole is because the girl had a mental breakdown or something and started crying and the brother had invited a stranger over for "hooking up".

But in the second post OP2 is labeled for the sole reason that she didn't pay her sister for the 3 hours she worked And second she didn't mention if its forbidden to bring over someone.

No!

In situation A a young girl invited her BF over. They were "sitting on the couch" together. Sitting on the couch and chatting whilst babysitting is not much of a distraction. The person is also not a stranger. It sounds pretty PG. As the mom I'd still be mad that she didn't ask for permission. Reverse the genders and I would feel exactly the same way.

In situation B the young guy brought over a stranger specifically for a hook-up. Not PG and very distracting. Reverse the genders and I'd feel the same way.

Your post makes it seem like these are the same situation with genders reversed. They are not.

Im pretty confused about this post, both babysitters got in trouble in a different way (adult man vs teenage girl). How is this double standards? I'm genuinely curious. In my opinion, both babysitters were assholes because it's common sense to notify the parents if you're going to bring someone over. Can't blame the parents for freakin out, especially if a mentally unstable person (first post) starts having a mental break down.
