[quote=Anonymous]I have a 9 year old who starts 5th grade next week. He will turn 10 a few weeks later. Last year (age 9 still) he came home from school alone one day a week when DH and I both had work commitments. He was home alone about an hour. He was not permitted to have friends over, I would probably not allow that until older teen. But you seriously attend your child's play dates? That is next level crazy. I can understand different kids have different abilities to be left alone. But not letting them play alone? Super weird. Im 41 fwiw.[/quote]
