Low income families I would think.

Saw my mom get left alone with six kids to raise on her own, while dad had 17 kids total.  She was a housewife and totally depended on her husband.  Needless to say we struggled growing up. So, I have always been independent (since I turned 18) and always will stay that way!  Of course, if I get independently wealthy, I might choose to stay home and raise some kids or just go travel!

Consider the age\nIn her workshop, "The Unsupervised Child," Patricia Mayer, vice president of the San Diego-based Parents Institute for Quality Education, tells parents there is no set legal age for leaving a child home alone. But she suggests that most children under 12 should not be left unsupervised for long periods.

Night curfew?It will be counter productive.Parents should set a very good example.They should freely and frankly discuss all private affairs.They should encourage friends` visits during day time,and talk to those friends also like parent figures.

please furnish me the source of your information that 56% child monsters work. i think that is exaggerated figure. it is better if they go to toilets at home and under unavoidable circumstances some body in school is to take them and i do not think it is wrong

Parental involvement.  Kids that drop out tend to have parents that think that education starts and ends with school.  Kids that stay in school have parents that are involved in their education.

Could it be the dispute between mothers & non-mothers and how each percieve working after child-bearing.\n\nSome say women should be able to work and be treated the exact same and have the same expected of them as their co-workers.  Others argue that it would be better for society if mums could stay home and focus on raising their children insteadl.

It's hard to answer the way you've put the question (asking how many live in the home).\n\n60-65% of families in the US have both parents working.

They somehow believe that children spend the most time with their parents or with people that their parents would otherwise disapprove of, but given that their parents have "no personal assertiveness" or are working long hours in difficult and unpleasant jobs they have no time to see what their kids are up to and hence from whom they are receiving their bad influence. Society also assumes that bad parents are a bad influence on their children, whom it is assumed spend all day watching and learning bad habits from mum and dad. I think offspring in any situation get to compare their own parents with other people's families. Every family is dysfunctional in some way. It doesn't matter how you start out, as long as you finish the right way.

Somebrowing said "Hey parents, babies still don't make themselves."  High five to you, woman! I feel very fortunate because when I grew up, chores and privileges were delegated by age, not gender. My brothers and I were all taught to be self-sufficient and responsible. Our parents both had careers and were excellent role models for us. I can do basic car maintenance and my brothers can cook and sew....and vice versa. \nWe all had the same curfews based on age and were expected to let our parents know where we were at all times. I think boys and girls can both have many privileges and a great deal of freedom if they act responsibly.

i dont know about research but my brothers are twins and they have always been seperted, it allows them to be individuals and stops them becomming co-dependent on eachother. And plus my brothers either argue or plot when they are together so apart is MUCH better

It is generally recommended that children younger than age 10 never be left at home alone. In some states it is even illegal to leave children younger than age 10 home alone on a regular basis. \n\nBy the age of 11 or 12, some children can stay home alone safely for up to a few hours.\n\nI'm not sure though the actual law in Texas. The website I have listed is an artice and in that article it mentions something about not until they are 15.

for either, not on a school night for sure.  Otherwise, I had a curfew for my son at 16 of 10:30, at 17 he could come home by 11:30, but as a senior, he had to be home by 12:30.  Now he is in college and when he is home for vacations, he still has a curfew, and it is 1:00 am.  As for my daughter, she is only 16 now, and she has the 10:30 curfew for Friday and Saturday, but luckily it seems she and her friends really kind of like hanging out here at our house.  I, too, have a different standard for my daughter b/c of the dangers special to females, which seems sexist and unfair to her sometimes, but thank goodness, she doesn't fight me on it.

For those who work outside the home going to work would be worse. For all us stay at home Moms, the chores are part of the work at home and never seems to end. Except for yesterday when my hubby sent the kids to their Grandmas for the night. Let's just say my head hurts and I can barely walk today. Ahh, good times , good times.But alas the chores and work will be home in like 3 hours so play time is over. Poor me.
