[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would 2 hours be too long? Does it matter what time of day?[/quote] 2 hrs. is not too long --- provided the child is o.k. with being alone. Personally, I wouldn't leave a 9 yr. old when the time period covers bedtime... or when it is dark like in the late evening (I supposed it'd be o.k. if it was dark at 5:00 in the winter b/c the child is still fully awake and there are kid shows on and neighbors available if necessary.) I don't think a kid should have to put him/herself to bed at that age -- but it might depend on how independent the child feels. [/quote]
