Just a babysitter?

One thing that amazes me is when I won't hear from friends for a while and then suddenly when they need a babysitter I'm first in line for that call.

Don't get me wrong, I love the children in my life thanks to my friends and family who have kids but really, sometimes I'd like to hear from said friends and family on adult related topics instead of just to see if I'm free to help care for their kids.  And, shocker here, sometimes I'd like to even spend time with said adults to catch up instead of just having their adorable kids be the focus of the day.

Certainly kid time is a great thing that I enjoy very much but the reality is that I'm friends with the adults first and not the kids so I would, occasionally, like to spend time with those adults focused on adult conversations.
