[quote=Anonymous]I have a 6th grade DD and I am fine with her being home alone: I think that's totally appropriate for her age. And if there were a bus to our street, I would be fine with her letting herself in. However, there's no bus and the 1.5 mile walk is unsafe in my opinion (large busy roads with some questionable people about) so we do not allow her to walk. I work in person but tweak my schedule so I can start and end work early to pick her up. Otherwise she stays in the after-school program. When I was a kid, we had no school bus so the neighborhood parents shared carpool. My (working) dad drove everybody in the morning and my (SAH) neighbor picked us up in the afternoon. [/quote]
