In New York, there is no specific legal age that dictates when a child can walk outside alone. However, parents are responsible for ensuring their child's safety, and neglecting this duty could lead to legal consequences. Generally, many parents consider children around the ages of 10 to 12 to be mature enough for short walks outside, but this can vary based on the child's maturity and the environment. Ultimately, it's up to individual discretion and local guidelines.

A father has no inherent rights to an unborn child. Those rights are only conferred after the birth of the child and only after legal paternity is established as outlined by state laws in New York.
In New York, parents are legally responsible for their child until the child turns 21 years old.
It depends on the child support order and the age of the child. The rest is immaterial.
In New York, a parent cannot unilaterally emancipate an 18-year-old child. Emancipation typically requires a legal process or agreement between the parent and child, or a court order. Once a child reaches the age of 18, they are considered a legal adult in New York.
