[quote=Anonymous]No, I would not send my 7 yr old alone. We did a girl scout type camping trip last year with 7 and 8 yr olds. There were 2 girls without parents who came and 8 girls whose parents did. Night time came and all the girls were tired, it was really dark, they were suddenly in a new place, all the fun of the day had warn off, and these little kids needed their moms. The two girls who had no mom with them had to get themselves ready for bed in an unfamiliar place with an unfamiliar routine. Yes, we did help those girls out of course but it was overwhelming for a child that young to be all alone, in a new place, trying to figure things out that every evening they have help with at home.
