I work about 5 days a week they are not set days but I do know in advance, typically always Sunday and Mondays. I have 2 younger children 4, and 8 and a teen boy, 17, who often stays in his room playing his game. He typically only comes out to eat or go to work. I cannot depend on him to actually watch the 2 younger girls. The girls will need dinner, tucked into bed and gotten up in the morning (They both typically get dressed themselves, the 8-year-old just needs a verbal checklist i.e. did you brush your teeth, wash your face and put on deodorant? While the 4-year-old needs a little more in-depth verbal checklist, i.e. do you have socks on, did you take off pullup and put on underwear? Also, her backpacked checked for spare school outfit including spare underwear! The 4 year old gets on the bus that comes to driveway at 7:58am. My teen boy, does not need supervision, but he will be in the home and can fend for himself for all needs.
