[quote=Anonymous]I started staying home alone after school at age 11. I was allowed to use the microwave. No oven, stove top or knives. Around age 12/13 my mom would have me start the crock pot or put a casserole in the oven. Around age 12/13 is also when I started babysitting and I would make box Mac and cheese on the stove top or frozen pizza for the kids for dinner (it was the 1980s). I didn’t know how to use a gas stove and I remember a mom giving me a quick lesson before heading out. [/quote]
