I hate this :sigh: :blush:

Soledad, I fully agree with you. I believe its very wrong of her parents to just go camping with the whole family and have fun there for two weeks, while leaving their daughter behind. :eek: My parents would NEVER do that. *If* my parents for some reason HAD to go somewhere for two weeks and leave me alone, I *know* my mom would cook a meal for everyday and put it in the freezer, leave the fridge full with food so I wouldn't have to go shopping, leave at least $500-$1000 at home in case I needed the money, and I *know* they would also have someone, a responsible adult friend come and spend the night with me, or at least have some trustable neighbors watch over and make sure everything was alright, since we too have no family around. They wouldn't just leave me *alone* like that. I feel bad to say this, but I think this is highly irresponsible on your parents' part. I can't believe they didn't even leave a sibling with you. :eek: You are your parents' responsibility as your pets are your responsibility. You may be old enough to care for yourself for awhile, but you are still young, and still need your parents. :( I feel bad that you're alone like this for 2 weeks. Really sad. :( I think you need to have a talk with your parents when they return.

That really sucks, your situation.

I'd go to a friend's house and eat their food, lol... Naaaah, but being home alone would be fun! I'm home alone almost every single day from 2pm to midnight. It's fun. I take care of the animals and make sure they're all settled in. 6pm is Iggie's bedtime, so all I have to do with her is get her set up in her cage and turn her night lighs on, I also change Hopper and Louie's day lights to night lights then. By 6pm, I have the dogs fed, cats fed, rodents fed, dogs let outside they all have water. Then I leave at 6pm to go to a friends house and return before anyone else does, around 11, 11:30. But that's every other day. I don't leave every day, I was asked not to by my mother. :) I think it's a good compromise. :) But I'm sorry about the situation you're in. :( :(

My mom s friend calls me once a day to make sure I am alive, So I guess thats kinda like somone watching over me. :confused:. I am so mad at my mom and dad, I am going to ream them out when they call me. :mad:

Personally I would not leave my daughter at your age 17 wasn't it? alone, mainly because of the safety issue , a girl alone and at nights, not a good idea.
And I would make sure there was a fridge and cupboard full of food, and knowing me their would be some yummie extras.

I would make sure I went somewhere where I could be contacted by cellphone, its seems your folk's have kinda just walked away from their responsibilites somewhat!

Maybe they are trying to teach you some responsibilites about life, just a thought, however I don't think this is the case is it?

Just think when they return you may appreciate them more, well at least for 5 minutes lol!

well ya I cant live on my own so my parents are basically my life line. I am 16 (17 in september) but here leaving a girl at home alone isnt an issue, it is a really calm safe naibourhood with lost lil kids and old folks. I have naibours right there I could run to for help.

Well my mom just called from my aunts (4 hours away) and said that she is having the worst time and she is sending 40$ to my baNK account because she feels bad, she thought there was more food in the house (in the down stairs freezer) but I checked and their isnt.

Theya re comming home early, they'll be back on wednesday, I was freaking sooooo MAD at her on the phone. So thats why she desided to give me more money, now I have money for the pt gift swop :p.

;).

:eek: ONLY 40!??!? oh come on jynnelle..I know you could do better than that...at least take 60 lol.

she only would send me 40 :rolleyes: she sux.

I'm just curious, Kingrattus, but what did that story have to do with this thread??:confused:
