[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand. Who was watching these kids when you were working OP? [/quote] What? She was in the house, just sent them to another part of the house to occupy themselves. When your kid was that age were they always stuck to your hip? My DS is 10 and stays home alone for short periods of time.[/quote] So no one was watching them?!?![/quote] OMG. These kids are 9 and 11....do you really have eyes on your children that age for every second of the day? My kids are older now, but at that age, they were quite capable of playing by themselves or with a group of friends either indoors or out in the neighborhood. And the younger child, at 6, seemed to show that he was capable as well as he was the one to go get help when needed. I recommend the book How to Raise An Adult to give some perspective on child indepence at different ages.[/quote]
