[quote=Anonymous]It really depends on who is watching them. The fact that you said it was a "mix" makes me worry that everyone isn't up for the job. Kids need stablity at that age. We left my then 6th grader & 2nd grader with my parents and my MIL for a 10 day trip to Asia for our 15th anniversary (MIL gave us the trip). Skyping didn't work because of the time delay. MIL had the weekend and my parents had the week. Everyone stayed in our house. (all fam is local) Of course it snowed and the grandparents were tired even though they watch the kids regularly. MIL is young and my parents are fine. I do think it's important to be away from your kids for a night here and there. We've had multiple kids not be able to sleep over because they panic at night - this at 2nd grade. [/quote]
