Did you come home to a house without an adult in it after school?

1 Answer

Answer :

My mother was home when I came home from school. I am home when my son comes home from school (or I pick him up). I am home when my step son comes home most of the time, especially now that he is having some anxiety issues. Although his mother leaves him at home alone for hours at a time, I am not comfortable doing that.
