I'm still not sure its a good idea. Think about the youth culture today, and the problems society has with it. Turning aload of 11 year olds on the streets whilst they're mams are at work isnt really going to help, I wouldnt have thought.

During schooltime, its not as bad as the holidays, and where else can you get the same amount of holidays as the schools in a working environment.

I think I was probably about this age when I started 'looking after myself' during the day, but I know a lot of kids that at 11years old would not be safe or mature enough to do so?
