Well you can answer these questions:
Are they responsible?
Are they trustworthy?
Are they respectful?
Do they take pride in themselves?
Are they caring?
Are they fair with others? (if babysitting)
If mostly Yes to these questions your child is ready to stay home alone. If mostly No to these questions your child is not recommended to stay home alone.
Very typical for preteens to be scared when they're left home alone.
How long can a child of 12 years old be left at home alone in the state of Maryland?
well it depends on the maturity of the child, I am responsible and I first stayed home alone around 12 years old
I think it sould be mostly up to the parent but it should be when the child is mature enough to handle themselves and emergency situations. They should not be left home alone for too long the first time and go over the emergency procedures with your child.You may gradually increase the time alone if it is okay with the child. DO NOT LEAVE THE CHILD ALONE IF THEY DONT WANT TO BE LEFT HOME ALONE!!!!!
they should be left alone because they might sting you
Small children should never be left home alone.
they SHOULD be left in the wild. its their natural home, and they are doing just fine there so LEAVE THEM ALONE

Well it depends. Some kids are more mature by a certain age but it's generally accepted that at age 14 you can stay home alone.
