Okay, this post was inspired by a plot bunny involving book #32, which if you remember, features a child with severe Autism Spectrum Disorder. Now that time of only those cases being diagnosed is over, I thought about two things: What if the family's second baby, Hope, had mild ASD, so mild it was undiagnosed (autism is genetic, so it could be that she was like her big sister but to a lesser degree and not a savant), and a particularly judgmental sitter sat for her and tries to force her to make friends and stop being awkward...then she's diagnosed, and the sitter learns about not pressuring a kid until they're ready, and that you have to read between the lines.
Anyway, my thought was then that the BSC girls would be in college by then. So my question was, who would sit for her. Then it came to me - the second coming of the BSC - a group of former charges that consists of younger sisters and their friends.
The question of charges-turned-sitters was explored in book #97, when Jeff and the Pike triplets proved they could be good sitters but just weren't ready yet. The question is, which clients would be good sitters when they got older, and who would be most likely to form the second BSC? (Also, if you're interested, we can discuss what kind of mistakes or virtues the clients-turned-sitters could make).

Hmm I've seen various threads on this before but I like the idea of Byron becoming a sitter. Charlotte Johansan comes to mind with Becca. I can't imagine Karen being a sitter, she'd the type of person that would have multiple hobbies/clubs like Shannon had. I can't think of anyone else at the top of my head.
