[quote=Anonymous]Do not answer the door. Your 12 year old is not old enough to negotiate that experience and your focus should be on her needs and her ability to handle the experience, not on some imaginary scenario in which burglars might be "casing the joint," which is so remote and unlikely as to be ridiculous. Run through what she will do with her time. I would say no cooking, no stove use. Have her plan to do homework, watch tv, use the computer, some such thing.[/quote]
