Medical Definition of Nerve Nerve: A bundle of fibers that uses electrical and chemical signals to transmit sensory and motor information from one body part to another. The fibrous portions of a nerve are covered by a sheath called myelin and/or a membrane called neurilemma. (Note that entries for specific nerves can be found under the names of the particular nerves. For example, the optic nerve is not under 'nerve, optic' but rather under 'optic nerve.')
My oldest two have been babysitting their younger siblings since they were 13 and 12. Before that, my friendâs daughter babysat (and she was 14 or 15). Itâs really not a big deal. They take turns watching the 3yo, and the other kids pretty much take care of themselves.
Questions frequently arise during the course of a divorce about about how old one must be in Michigan to be a babysitter, about how old a child must be in Michigan before she can be left alone without a babysitter or daycare, and about whether older siblings can babysit for younger ones.
