Massachusetts state laws state that any child under the age of 12 must ride in the backseat
Usually, that's up to the driver / parents' discretion. The safest place for a child is always the back seat. However, if he or she is big enough for the seat belt to hold him or her in the proper position, it'll be OK.

I found a really helpful PDF put out by the Utah Safety council. According to it, there is no law regarding children riding in the front seat of the car: http://www.utahsafetycouncil.org/assets/pdf/utboosterlaw.pdf It is recommended that children under age 12 ride in the back seat, or to turn the airbags off if a child under 12 is in the front seat, but there is no law saying you have to.

First of all, people riding in the front, as well as the back seat are required to wear seat belts. It's against the law in most states for a child to sit in the front seat of a car that has front air bags. Only children taller than 4'9' in height, and/or the age of twelve should ride in the front seat of a vehicle.
In the US, under current law, this is probably illegal in every state, though I'm not positive about that. The usual cutoff age for riding in the front seat is 12.
