It depends in every state. Most states don't have spesific laws but some do. Georgia, Maryland, Ohio and Oregin are SOME of the states. You have to be about 12 but not home alone more than a day. Hope to help. Bye Happy go!

At what age in PA can a child be left home alone unsupervised?

It depends on your definition of child. Some nine year old individuals can be responsible when left alone. On the other hand there are 17 year old individuals that can't be left anywhere alone. Still, I am a firm believer that if you have to ask a question like this, your not ready to leave any child alone. All it takes is one disconnect for something to go terribly wrong.

At what age can you leave a child at home alone in VA?

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!!!!!

There is no law that specifies an age. However, the child must be safe, feel as if they are safe, and be able to get help if they need it. Probably 14 to 15 if they are trusted by their parents.


Can a seventeen year old stay home alone at night?

In many places a 16 year old is legal to live on their own so it would seem that a 17 year old is more than capable of staying the night on their own except in rare cases such as not being capable of being alone at any time (ex. special needs).
