- January 08, 2006, 03:06:09 PMMy daughter was left alone from sfter school until midnight & watched her brother.. She was 12 & he was 7, while I worked a double shift.. The state (IL) said that was fine. My daughter was & is very mature.. I dont think my son will be mature enough at that age. But at this time, they do not need to be left alone. 9 & 5? wow.. I think that is WAY too young...

sounds like my hubby's ex wife. she works at a hospital and they have two kids one age 13 and the other 14. she has left them home alone over night for the past 3 years now when she has to work the over night shift. her shifts are about 12 hours long.. and guess what. in our state & the town she lives in they said there is nothing wrong with that as long as they can use a microwave and are off the streets by 10 pm during sun- thursday. and midnight from friday to sat night.. i think that is wrong. if i left my daughter home for more than 15 minutes and my dad was to find out my butt would be grass. lol.. just thought i would add my two cents in .. if you all dont mind lmao.
No offense but I think there's a big difference between a 13 and 14 year old and the 9 and 5 year old.....My parents started leaving my brother and I home alone around 9 or 10. And before anyone gets started on them, I had wonderful parents. They didn't do it to abuse us. I really think it depends on the child. If you have a mature child, I don't think you have to worry about them doing stupid stuff when they don't have any supervision. I know that still leaves other areas(ie: emergencies, fires, burglaries, etc.) but if you raise your kids right and they know what to do in any type of situation, then you may just be overreacting about leaving them alone.

i agree that people need to learn about birth control. especially young girls, its free if you are under 18 and they wont tell your parents, so many teen pregnancys could be prevented if people werent so stupid.
I am by far perfect and I did make mistakes when I was younger. I wasn't thinking back then. I used to say nothing bad is going to happen to me. Well you could only go on with that philosophy for so long.
We can't just blame the girls either. These young boys can also get condoms for free at any Planned Parenthood. ;)

- January 08, 2006, 12:08:14 AMWhat makes me more upset about this story is that the 5-year-old has autism. I have a 6-year-old son with autism, and I am 27. I get stressed dealing with him sometimes, so my question is how could a 9-year-old deal with it?
Some people need to learn to use birth control.

- January 07, 2006, 03:31:53 PMOMG ... some people are so self-centered. These people only thought of what they wanted to do. When you have children, it is your responsibility to put them first. I just hope that they make sure that they have the safety and security they will need to grow up happy and healthy.

- January 06, 2006, 01:38:47 PMThis story is really sad. I don't know why people do this. I would never leave my kids alone. It's really sad how they got the sitter for the dogs but didn't even think to get one for this kids. That is just messed up.

- January 06, 2006, 01:14:30 PMThat is really messed up about the pets.... I hope they never get to see their kids ever again, if they didnt want to care for them on New Years then they dont deserve them ever....
