I had a 11yo start with me during the holidays, she was meant to come 6 days in total but for various reasons only came 1, then when they went back on thur she was meant to be coming everyday afterschool. When she came in the hols and last week, her mum said she could just walk home when she was ready (she lives nearby and actually gave notice last week cos her mum won't be going back to work as previously expected). So, today I said are you just to walk home or is someone picking you up, she said oh I think I've just to walk, so just before 5 she said she was going to head home, my mum happened to pop in and offered her a lift since it's pouring here. All fine, except someone just came to my door asking for her, a friend of her mums cos apparently she was at a hospital appt today and had got held up so there was no one home.
So, it seems I've sent her home to an empty house :panic: I honestly didn't think to call her mum before she left cos she's been so laid back but I feel terrible now. I'm guessing she either had a key or went to a neighbour cos I would have thought otherwise she'd have come back. The mums friend has gone to to the house to look for her, but I feel awful and am so annoyed with myself for not checking :(
