An old favourite! a 15 year old on his own overnight?

[PatPhoenix]

Just wondered what others thought about this - ds will just have turned 15 in late January, I'm thinking of going away overnight, would you leave him? He is an extremely self-contained and sensible child, he will have cats and the entire internet for company [erm...] but I'm just not quite sure. Ultimately it's probably up to him I guess. There are other options such as friends' houses who are happy to have him.

I left my sensible teen over night, a teacher heard him telling a mate and I was reported to social services. Apparently it is very clear guidelines that overnight must be 16 and even at 15 and a half it is a sage guarding issue.

Yup. Plus you know him best. I think it's a rest way to show your son you trust him. So yes!!
