[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To those who are saying child-care is so short-term: what do you do when they're 13-year-old 7th graders and school lets out at 2:30 and there is no aftercare in middle school? Do you leave them alone from 2:30 until you get home at 6:00, or cobble together after-school clubs or hire a babysitter or what? Aren't those the hours in which they either do something enriching (which usually involves a parent driving them around) or get into trouble?[/quote] Like another poster, I too have a flexible schedule and am home most days at 445. I plan to have our 12yrs old get our 8yr old off the bus and watch him until I get home. Not worried about an hour and a half of alone time. I'll probably set up some cameras. [/quote]
