[quote=Anonymous]It really depends on your kids, OP: their maturity, how they get along, what they are up to when left home alone. Also, do you have a neighbor or someone relatively close, in case of an (extremely unlikely) emergency? I'd also definitely make sure that both kids prefer this arrangement to aftercare, and there is an option to reenroll if they change their mind. I know my kids, if given the option, would come home and have screen time. But I also know more adventurous kids who cannot be trusted alone. Or kids who don't get along well enough, where I wouldn't trust them not to have a fight and one kid to leave or hurt the other kid.[/quote]
