I have a 6-year-old daughter.My husband's salary isn't enough for the 3 of us.We consider some work for me either but we don't have anyone to leave the girl with(no reliable neighbours,no grandparents and no way to hire a baby-sitter).So we think she would be alone at home.But my question is that - I have friends from Europe.They all can leave their children alone whenever they want to and nothing bad happens.Their children usually stay at home,read books,watch TV,sleep,play with dolls.I think if European children can handle with such a situation,our(American) children can do it so.My best friend(from Europe) has a son,5 years old,and she regularly leaves him alone,because she is working and they don't send him to daycares etc.What do you think about that?
