Do you think it would be ok to leave DD alone for approx 2 hours tomorrow?

I have a meeting to go to tomorrow with work and my CM is off for the Christmas holidays.

I will be away from the house for 2 hours max - do you think it would be ok to leave DD (11) on her own?

I could possibly leave her with a neighbour or my grandmother but she's desperate to prove to me that she's mature enough to be left alone for a while.

I may be being a bit PFB here but I've never left her alone before for more than a couple of minutes!

Any advice?

At ten I used to travel 10 miles on my own to school each day. At 11 your DD should be fine for a few hours as long as shes a sensible type.

oops just read she was fine! She will be fine with the school run too I reckon!
