Bad Babysitters: Couple Left In Charge of 6-Month-Old Send Parents Hilarious Photoshop Updates

For any parent, leaving your little ones with the babysitter is a gut-wrenching experience.

It takes a LOT of resolve to stop yourself from setting the childminder to Speed Dial 1 and checking in every 15 minutes, despite the fact you KNOW their only plan for the day was to eat cereal and watch Spongebob Squarepants.

In a bid to make the departing parent's task even worse, a hilarious trend has developed, which involves photoshopping children into a variety of death defying poses.

Crikey!

First we saw dad Dave taunting absent mum with amazing faked images of their daughter Alice Bee playing with fireworks and sitting in a boiling saucepan.

Next up, we have this irresponsible duo who, when left to look after their friends' six-month-old, sent regular photo updates of all the fun things they were getting up to.

As if dinosaurs weren't scary enough, there's the small matter of bears and snakes to watch out for too.

Babysitting is a MINEFIELD.

It wouldn't be shark week without a hungry great white making an appearance, now would it?

Good job this pair were on hand to keep baby safe from snapping jaws!

Thanks for making an appearance Jaws, but no thanks!

And JUST when they thought they'd navigated the animal kingdom successfully, one last unwanted guest showed up, to risk baby safety.
