How old does a child have to be to stay home alone in ma?
Well there's no law that says you cant leave your child home alone unless there like 2 but its up to the parent if they trust a babysitter than any age is ok if an adult is present but if they are going to be home alone i would say you need to have a sit down with the child and tell them what to do and what not to do like playing with the stove etc. but i would recommend not leaving him/her alone unless they are about 12 or 13 but that's just my opinion

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 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.

Is there a legal age for children to stay at home alone in Tarrant County Texas?
I do not think that is something that is regulated by the laws. A good parent would be sure that a child was responsible enough to do that. IT is left to the parent's judgement but if it were me, I wouldn't allow any child under 15 to stay home alone and that would be ONLY in a time of actual need.

Do you have to have a pemit to babysit at 11 years old?
First and foremost, it is depending on the parents decision whether to leave a child alone with you or for you to stay home alone and having to watch a child. It's not what it's cracked up to be..... children are not the easiest to handle - You do not need a permit,as long as you are responsible enough.Considering you are only a tween, start off with only one child and see how it works out.

There is no law that specifies an age. However, the child must be safe, feel as if they are safe, and be able to get help if they need it. Probably 14 to 15 if they are trusted by their parents.
