[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]so 10 and 13 alone at home is OK? asking for a friend.[/quote]

Of course! Unless they have a mental illness or something. When I was 13 I was babysitting for families with 3-4 children, including babies. [/quote]

“A mental illness or something”— do you mean a disability?

I hate you.  I mean HATE you.[/quote]

This post is a totally bizarre overreaction.[/quote]

NP. I think someone who flippantly calls kids who sadly can’t take care of themselves mentally ill is probably pretty hate-able.  I think if you have a child with cerebral palsy or Down syndrome or something and have to deal with witches like this, you probably don’t see it as an overreaction.

Why are people in this area just so terrible and so proud of being terrible?  What does it hurt to be decent?[/quote]

PP said "mental illness OR SOMETHING" just like you said "Down syndrome OR SOMETHING."  The "something" can cover many things.  They didn't say all kids who can't take care of themselves are mentally ill.[/quote]

Mmmm…”mental illness or something” sounds incredibly snotty.  I don’t know but I can’t help but read it in an obnoxious middle school mean girl tone.  I’d be willing to bet money that lady is an absolute b….   [/quote]

It’s very offensive. Probably one of RWNJs trolling the forum. [/quote]

+1 And not even socially aware enough to realize that the pp is not offended by the idea that 10 and 13 year olds should be able to stay home alone!! There are 2 responses that indicate that’s what this person thinks the issue is here!  [/quote]

I honestly don't see what was offensive.  Some kids do have mental illness.  Some kids have physical disabilities.  You know your own kid best and can judge whether they can stay home alone.[/quote]
