[quote=Anonymous]At the end of the day, we do not know your children. I have taught 5th grade and some of them I would never leave home alone, let alone responsible for others. While it may be ok for some families, it may not work for others and that is ok. I guess my question is, if they are signed up for various camps and activities, then who is taking them? Maybe a nanny would be useful part time. Also, trying to figure out why she truly doesn’t want to be home “alone.” I grew up with anxiety, still do, and being home, even with other kids, freaked me out. I just liked the comfort of an adult. Maybe your younger two kids fight a lot and the oldest does not want to deal with that. My oldest is 14 and he does not like to deal with drama. He likes to be left alone[/quote]
