If the child is not safe, the child does not feel safe, the child does not know how to get help or handle an emergency, or there are other factors involved, the state makes a determination as to whether it was safe to leave the child. In most cases authorities feel that a 12 or 13 year old can be left alone safely for a few hours during the day. Younger then that should not be left alone.
