[quote=Anonymous]OP, next time don’t have your dd wake up so early. Certainly she doesn’t need 2 hours to get ready? She should have woken up at the normal time, or as late as possible to still make the bus. Then you could have avoided her being awake in the dark and alone. I also think you are feeding the anxiety by even offering to come up with this strange plan. That just plants the seed in your dd’s head that yes she shouldn’t want to be home alone, there’s a reason to be scared, etc. I also have a 12 year old girl and teaching resilience and confidence is really important. It’s great for them to conquer fears and realize there’s no need for anxiety. Were you commuting for part of it and could have been reachable? If so, you should have just reassured your dd to call or text with anything. [/quote]
