[quote=Anonymous]I think it was nice of you to check. I would have been concerned about leaving a child alone as well. I'm surprised that all of the staff left before all of the kids were picked up, but it sounds like there was school staff in the vicinity. However, if the child knows that their Mom was running late, I think a 7th grader is old enough to be left alone. FWIW, my thoughts on this are colored by the fact that my Mom forgot me once, and I had to wait in a dark, scary place in the rain. This was in the time before cell phones, so I had no way to call. They finally sat down for dinner and realized I wasn't there and came and got me, but it was a frightening experience. It would have been nice if one of the other parents had asked if I was ok.
