[quote=Anonymous]This whole scenario seems so weird to me. Are you sure an older sibling wasn’t home or something? Or is the gym something like “neighborhood fitness center” down the street? (like some condo complexes or gated communities sometimes have). Which would still be leaving them alone but maybe would make more sense. My DD’s BFF lives in a community with a pool and fitness center down the street and in elementary, the mom asked if I minded if the girls were alone for a bit while she walked younger sib to and from summer swim practice (fine- it was like 5 houses distance away). Otherwise my best guess is you texted that you were on your way, so the mom felt free to leave since it was only a few minutes? Which she shouldn’t have but…i could see how she might think it wasn’t a big deal. Many people leave their own 9 year olds alone but generally not with friends over. And definitely not without clearing it with the parent. [/quote]
