[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]12 years. It was not easy, but I did not want to take any chances.[/quote] Oy. At 11 years old I was in charge of supervising my 6 year old sister from 3pm when we got off the school bus until my mom got home until 5:30. I knew the rules - keep the door locked, don't answer for anyone, don't use the stove. We managed to survive. We would eat a snack, watch some TV and do our homework while we waited for mom. You are going to raise a nervous child if you don't give them some freedom, confidence and trust.[/quote]
