[quote=Anonymous]After my parents divorced my dad got a new job and had to go into work early - often around 2-4 am. He left me at 16 my little sister at 14 at home alone at that time and we woke up and had to get ready for school. It always gave me a lot of anxiety, frankly, but we did it. He got us a dog and that helped a bit, but the fear of being two girls alone in a house and the house getting broken into and someone coming in to do something bad to us - was real. I mean, do what you gotta do, but parentification of kids is not really ideal and as a parent now I am not sure I would do what my dad did. [/quote]
