@JJsMom, I wouldn't be ashamed to tell anyone what my choice of entertainment is, which is really none of their business anyhow, because I don't care what others think. One thing is.... you'll never find me doing something like Pokemon Go. I have serious reservations about it. Now, in my state, there is a new law prohibiting registered sex offenders from playing.
But getting back to the OP, IMO 25 and 27 are children. With few exceptions, I don't believe they have matured enough to fully understand the consequences of their choices. They are just "grabbing at fun" at this age. IMO they are just starting out.
You don't believe people who are 25 and 27 years old are capable of understanding what choosing to leave a 2 year old alone at home, for any reason, is not a good idea? May I ask at what age you feel they are mature enough to actually understand that there are consequences for poor choices.
You people are sounding downright hostile in challenging my opinion. At least that's the way it's coming across cyber-space, lol.
Obviously, I am making a gross generalization. There are young adults in their 20's who are exceedingly responsible and know the difference between right and wrong. However, my generalized opinion is based upon my personal experience and observations. As an example, one of my relatives was married and had two children by the age of 26. She is 30 now. Her husband is still out carousing with his friends rather than sharing in the responsibilities at home. He never grew up. I see this kind of behavior over and over again in other examples.
I advised my children to spend their 20's establishing their careers and getting all the leftover college fun out of their systems. They weren't required to follow my advice, but did, and thanked me for it because by the time they hit their 30's, they were well-equipped to handle marriages and family responsibilities.
That's not to say there aren't 20 year olds who are responsible .... but my opinion is that many more of them lack the skills for more responsible behavior, especially where raising children are concerned,.... as in the OP.
I agree with you. There is evidence of grown folk acting a fool everyday. Some who have been married (three, four times) and still looking for attention. LOL. Adults can be just as immature as the twenty somethings.
Here's something to read to help you solidify your belief! I believe it too.
