12 year old going to London on her own

[tireddotcom72]

I'm actually completely lost for words. Asked my ex to look after his 12 year old dd for a couple of hours tomorrow evening. He said he couldn't manage the half hour train journey from London to our house after work but suggested she got the train into London on her own during rush hour then cross London during rush hour on the underground on her own! She would then meet him somewhere in Euston!

This child suffers from anxiety at the best of times and has never even been to our local town centre on her own!!

It seems like he's on a quick path for her to decide to cut contact with him.
And it seems as there won't be a great loss for her.

I'd just leave her at home if it's only for a couple of hours. Unless she feels anxious about it.

Aside from his uselessness what was the point of his idea if it was a couple of hours? He sounds bonkers.

I work in London and restrict my jobs to those that will let me travel flexibly, rush hour is hell even after twenty years of being used to it!
