阅读下列文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳答案。
For more than six million American children, coming home after school means coming home to an empty house. Some deal with the situation by watching TV. Some may hide. But all of them have something in common. They spend part of each day alone. They are called latchkey children. They are children who look after themselves while their parents work. And their bad condition has become a subject of concern.
Lynette Long was once the principal (校长) of an elementary school. She said, “We had a school rule against wearing jewelry. A lot of the kids had chains around their necks with keys attached. I was constantly telling them to put them inside their shirts. There were so many keys that it never came to my mind what they meant.” Slowly, she learned they were house keys.
She and her husband began talking to the children who had them. They learned of the effect working couples and single parents were on their children. Fear is the biggest problem faced by children at home alone. One in each three latchkey children the Longs talked to reported being scared. Many had nightmares and were worried about their own safety.
The most common way the latchkey children deal with their fears is by hiding. It might be in a shower stall, under a bed, in a closet. The second is TV. They will often play it at high volume. It is hard to get statistics (统计) on latchkey children. The Longs learned, most of the parents are slow to admit they leave their children alone.
1．The main idea about latchkey children is that they ________.

At more women in the United States move up the professional ladder, more are finding it necessary to make business trips alone. Since this is new for many, some trips are certainly in order.
