[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 550680, member: 1514"] I had to leave Cory and Jamie home alone after school while I worked. After school care stopped when they left 6th grade and we didnt have a boys club or Y either. It really was a pain. I have no idea if you are as rural as I am or not but we just had to deal with it. I know your state does have some waiver programs available. Could you get the most difficult one a waiver to have a PCA or whatever it would be called to come take him out during the afternoons...sort of like Buddy's son goes out? Cory had one. I also left certain chores that each had to do during the time I was gone...not that they actually got done but there was a treat like dessert if the chores or homework were done. Does each child have a room to themselves? If so, do they each have their own TV, game stuff or whatever they like in their rooms? Can they ride bikes outside during good weather? Mine were outdoors kids most of the time. They dropped their stuff inside and then went fishing for most of the afternoon. [/QUOTE]
