I don't believe that there is a law pertaining to kids at home alone that are able to take care of themselves. I'm sure there is something for much younger children(babies, 1, 2 year old etc.) Also I'm sure that leaving kids alone all night long would be look upon poorly. A case would have to be made that it is somehow endangering the child's well being.
As these kids are older, I don't see how that would be the issue.
