Our Daughter

Thanks to Darwin Barton

My husband and I have been trying to figure out for three years now exactly how old our daughter should be before she gets to stay at home by herself. We’ve asked around to several of our friends how old their children were when they started letting them stay at home, and it’s such a wide variety of answers. Some parents feel comfortable leaving their kids at home as young as 1st grade. Now I don’t think that I could have left Sarah alone that young, but now she’s in 5th grade. So we went to a website to install a home security system ( click here), got her a key, and let her try it out. We only let her stay for a couple of hours right after school gets out.She’s such a great kid- and she seems to be doing fine! It makes me nervous, but it’s much cheaper than a babysitter!
