The Tram Crash).

At what age can a child stay home alone in Ontario?

In Ontario children 10 and over can be left home alone. This is not to be done overnight or for a period exceeding 2 hours.

There are no explicit ages or ranges stated in the "Child and Family Services Act". The act states that any adult person in charge of a child less than 16 years of age cannot leave the child alone without making provision for his/her care that is reasonable under the circumstances. This may mean a check in phone call or making a neighbour aware.

According to the Durham Childrens Aid Society the following guidelines are reasonable:

Age 0 to 9: child should not be left unsupervisd for any period of time.

Age 10 to 12: short periods (1 to 2 hours) may be acceptable

Age 13 to 14: longer periods (2 to 5 hours) may be acceptable

Age 15 to 16: should be able to be alone for a full day
