Home alone, keys and garden play, sentence 0
Being trusted to stay home alone for a short time is a step towards growing up, but it only works with a plan: a grown-up agrees, you know when they will be back and how to reach them, and you know what you may and may not do.
Who acts: step, grown up, you, they · What happens: trust, stay, be, grow up, work, grow · To what, where: step, them · Speech: someone speaks here
