If your 13 years old then how long can you stay home alone?

A responsible 12-year-old can be left alone for 2-5 hours regularly or 3-6 hours on occasion, and perhaps up to 8 hours only once a year--so long as he or she has the ability to contact an adult for help or assistance at any hour at any time (and so long as an adult is aware he or she is being left alone and can check up on him or her). An irresponsible 12-year-old shouldn't be left alone for more than 4 hours.

Section 170-C:5 of the New Hampshire Revised Statutes lists the available grounds for termination of a parent's rights.

Alternatively, the parent may abandon a child by leaving the child without any way to identify the child or parent. If the petition for termination of parental rights includes sufficient facts and evidence to show child abandonment, the parent may involuntarily lose all parental rights, including the right to child custody, on a permanent basis.
