A responsible 12-year-old can be left alone for 2-5 hours regularly or 3-6 hours on occasion, and perhaps up to 8 hours only once a year--so long as he or she has the ability to contact an adult for help or assistance at any hour at any time (and so long as an adult is aware he or she is being left alone and can check up on him or her).
An irresponsible 12-year-old shouldn't be left alone for more than 4 hours.

How long can a 12 year long stay home alone in MD?
In Maryland, the minimum age of leaving a child home alone is 8 years. Depending on the maturity of the child, I'd say that a 12 year old can be left home alone for the daytime, but overnight, the child should be at least 15.
When is the first time your parents let you stay at home by yourself?
It all depends on how long they let stay home alone. When I was 10, they let me stay at home for up to an hour. When I was 12, I could stay home for up to 3 hours. When I was 14, I was baby-sitting, so I could stay home alone for however long I wanted. Hope this helps!!
