[quote=Anonymous]It really depends on the kid. My daughter could stay at home as early as 8. She was very responsible, didn't mind being alone and knew what to do in an emergency. My son is 11 and I still rarely leave him home alone. He is very absent minded and easily distracted and in his own world. He wouldn't intentionally damage the house but he would very likely go out on his bike and leave the front door wide open or put a metal soup can in the microwave or let any randon person into the house. He just does not think before he acts yet.[/quote]
