It's probably not a good idea to leave most children alone together &
unsupervised, ever.

There's no one to control their bad side, & they can get excited/"high"
by doing things (mean stuff, destroying, assaults), & act worse & worse.
(an fictional example is in the book: Lord of the Flies) However, there
are some individual exceptions.

From experience I know, that it's Not a good idea to leave a baby or
child (esp. female), alone with a teenaged boy/relative. And that the
damage done, lasts.

My 16 yr old son works in SACC and has many hours of training. I would
rather have him watch children (and he has babysat his sisters many times)
than most females I know.
