[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I had the exact same situation and hired someone to stay with my 16-17 year old while we were gone for a week. All those that have come after you are absurd IMO.  My DS left for school at 7 am and arrived home between 6-630 pm; he drove himself but the dog was at home all day.  DS also [b]needed[/b] someone to get have dinner waiting when he got home because he was starving when he walked in the door.  We were out of the country and have no family nearby, so I was not at all comfortable just leaving him alone.  I also didn't want him to have to deal with peer pressure on the weekend when all his friends would have definitely pushed for a party at our house.

You can post adds at AU or other nearby colleges - call and ask their student affairs offices.  Or ask a neighbor with a college kid at home.[/quote]

He didn’t “need” this. I say this as a parent who does all the grocery shopping, cooking and cleaning up for my kids. If I wasn’t around, however, they could manage. Your kid doesn’t need this more than any other kid. [/quote]
