11&15 DC need to be left home alone from 5pm until 10pm.

DH a couple hours away and I will be 45 minutes away.

What are others honest thoughts?

dpeends on the children. Are they well behaved? Do they know how to contact you ?
will they answer the door? Do you have cameras ?

If they are sensible I think that is fine

Sounds ok, as long as they are sensible and generally get along ok.

It’s a bit late but I think it’s fine but then I live alone at 16 🤷‍♀️

It's fine if they are sensible and get on OK

Why wouldn't it be fine?! 15 year olds can babysit. I often leave my 16 year old in charge of her 13 and 9 year old siblings.
