In Maryland, there is no specific legal age at which a child can be left home alone. However, the Maryland Department of Human Services recommends that children under the age of 8 should not be left alone without adult supervision. Ultimately, it is the responsibility of the parent or guardian to ensure that the child is mature enough to be left alone safely. Parents should consider the individual child's maturity and the length of time they will be unattended.

There are no legal laws about the age a child may be left alone but a child who is left alone too young could leave the parent liable for negligence or child abuse. A general rule of thumb would be if the child can cook for him/herself or call emergency services.
