[quote=Anonymous]I would go and use this as a way to encourage her to figure things out on her own. We had to leave my two older kids home for a long period (8ish hours) and told them if they wanted to do something other than be home they needed to talk to their friends and work it out (and then we would help coordinate). They were 11 and 13. We did make sure there were adults on call in the neighborhood just in case, but they each had time at a friend’s house and then ordered pizza for dinner. A little different with your child since they would be totally alone, but the idea is the same. Go to the wedding, and give her a chance to decide how she wants to spend her time.[/quote]
