[quote=Anonymous]When a kid is old enough to stay home alone, do you ever still make them go to a sibling's sport events even if they don't want to? Is it different if it's a swim team and one kid is in an A meet and another in the B meet? My B meet kid doesn't want to go to the A meet, even though they will have tons of friends there. That kid is 13 and can stay home alone, but will likely be on screens the entire time we are gone. I would rather have them with us and in the fresh air and socializing. Plus it's their team! They refuse to join in team cheers unless they're swimming that day. They're otherwise not pouty about swim team, I get that they're sad they are not in the A meets, but I think there is value in coming to cheer on siblings and friends. Curious what your family "policy" is about swim or other sports in general. [/quote]
