[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Leaving a 6 yo home alone is nuts, especially the PP that doesn’t tell the kid she’s leaving. What if there is an emergency? We felt comfortable once in middle school. So, 11. No landline, and the kid didn’t have a cell phone yet at that age. [/quote] I think you might be referring to my post about my 6 year old not noticing if we're home if he's watching TV. That doesn't mean I don't tell him I'm leaving. Of course I do, and make sure he has a phone and can call me if something happens.[/quote] I still think it’s nuts to trust that a SIX year old will respond appropriately in the event of something like a fire. Or anything else unexpected/problematic. [/quote]
