Just want people's thoughts on leaving my 16 yo ds alone at home for one week. DP and I are thinking of taking a week's holiday in the summer. DS doesn't want to come. He is quiet happy to stay home alone and with two sets of GP and various other family members living close by I was considering agreeing. I was telling a close friend all the above and she has made me second think everything as she doesn't think it is right to leave a 16 yo for this length of time. So I just wanted some other opinions on this thanks.
