[quote=Anonymous]My parents are traveling this weekend and won’t let my college aged sister stay alone with her brother, who’s a senior in high school. She heads on her study abroad program next week so she’s still at home. They don’t want them to drinking or having friends over (which both of them do not at their house…I mean one is a sophomore in college) and what’s even more ridiculous is the older daughter babysits overnight for her babysitting families regularly and is overall a responsible, normal college kid. Neither of them have ever done anything egregious and are otherwise responsible so to me this seems like a huge overreach to pay a 50 year old babysitter to watch them for a weekend. My sister leaves town next week for abroad so she has stuff to do in hometown but all three of us think this is totally insane. Is this normal stuff in the helicopter parenting age? [/quote]
