Wow. My parents left me alone for a night probably by age 12. And again, they were really over-protective. This boggles my mind, especially when I spend so much of my life lamenting that my parents didn't let me do more hard, scary things. I'm not the person I could be. And I will never be able to be that person now, because of all the times my parents said I would crack my head open and die if I played on the jungle-gym.
