Can the 14 year old stay home alone for a month?

Answer 1

That does sound like a good idea. While a 14 year old can do many things and can be responsible a month is a bit much. A 14 year old doesn't need that much supervision and being left alone for a month could be viewed as abandonment on the parents part or getting ready to actually meet life. That could get child services involved if anything such as a fire or anything else that happens. I'd have to say that it would be a normal choice to leave a 14 year old home alone.

yes, a 14 year old can stay home for a month but only if he has food and water to survive. A cellphone would also be nice so if anything goes wrong you could always call your parents or 911. After all he is only 4 years away from being 18 and than he will have to take care of himself.

Absolutely

Physically yes they could and a month isn't that much.
