What age does a child no longer need a babysitter in Washington State?

http://www.childcare.org/families/article_school-aged-home-alone.htm School Aged Children Home Alone? The decision to leave your child home alone is a very personal decision that needs to be made based on your feelings and experience with your child. Washington State does not have any laws or rules that say at what age a child can be left home alone. In general, children under 10 should not be left on their own, and babies and younger children should not be left alone even for a few minutes. Here are some questions to ask your self before you leave your child home alone. Does your child feel at all frightened or apprehensive about staying home alone? Does your child follow your instructions and your rules? Can you count on your child to tell you the truth? Can your child be counted on to stay clearheaded in an unexpected or emergency situation? Can you child calmly dial 911, give their full name (and yours), street address and phone number, and explain the situation? You might feel most comfortable starting out leaving your child alone for short periods of time. Go slowly and make sure that you and your child are comfortable with the situation.


Can a 11 year old stay home alone in California?

No. Of course not. Children are not supposed to stay alone ever. You are completely responsible for your children all the time. If you need to leave, you must get a responsible adult to take over the care of your children until you can return. Never leave children alone. In some cases, teenagers who have proven to be responsible may be left alone. But it is dependent upon the age and the responsibilty level of the child.

Can a child of 14 years old be left alone in the house at any time?

Any parent allowing this to happen is not being a responsible adult. No child should ever be left alone for any reason without proper supervision. If CPS discovered this happening, the child would be removed from the parents and placed into Foster care, and the parents could possible be arrested for child abandonment. Not a good idea to even think about. Your children need you as much as you need them.

Can an autistic child be left home alone in PA?

Autism is a broad category and the answer is likely to be no. A young child should not be left alone. Even for a child in their teens, it is more likely that the child would need supervision for their own safety. A parent who leaves a special needs child home alone without appropriate supervision would be charged with neglect and placing the child at risk. There are so many bad outcomes possible in that situation. However, the answer depends on numerous factors besides the age of the child such as the symptoms, the severity of the symptoms, the opinion of professionals who have evaluated and treated the child and the child's behavior.
