Do you let your Year 6 child walk home to an empty house after school?

DD is going into Year 6 and desperately doesn’t want to continue going to after school club. DS is going into Year 8 and already comes home from school and let’s himself in but he didn’t start until Year 7.

Would you let DD walk home to him? It’s a safe walk but she’d be on her own with him for around 1.5hours until I get back. They mostly get on but not always but they would then probably just phone me on my mobile at work to complain about each other rather than be unsafe. DH commutes and wouldn’t be reachable so it would be me dashing back if there’s any issues. I do leave them together now if I need to do the supermarket shop for example.
