[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think 13 or 14 in theory but agree with PPs that staying home alone for 10-12 weeks straight is a bad idea. He needs to have things to do outside of the house or with his peers.[/quote] Ditto. Some down time is good but not all summer. Needs to have something to engage him, could be a volunteering job, a camp, class. Last year with my 13 and 15 yr olds, the 15 yr old volunteered at a camp about 2/3 of the summer and hung out at home the rest of the time. 13 yr old did 2 weeks of sleepaway camp, a couple weeks at a local nature camp that goes up to age 15, and 1 week at a small art studio. Home the rest of the time.[/quote]
