[QUOTE="DDD, post: 605395, member: 35"] Sounds to me like you have it covered. Although I didn't have the exact same circumstances, I have left teens at home alone for a night...two easy child's, GFGmom (yikes, she was 22) and easy child/difficult child two years ago. The only one who did not follow the rules was.........care to guess???..........GFGmom. My philosophy is that if that independence is presented as an opportunity and a road to future independence, most easy child teens will do their best to prove that they are "grown up" and responsible. Your easy child is not far away from "going away to college alone" age. I'd just stress that you all trust her, you all love her, you all are available is she needs to talk...and how proud you are of her. Then go and have a good time. Hugs DDD [/QUOTE]
