[quote=Anonymous]Depends on how responsible your kid is, do you know the neighbors and neighborhood, is there someone close by if they need something, what will they probably do when you’re gone, do they understand basic safety and first aid and how to apply to themselves or others, can they unclog a toilet or at least turn the water off until you get home, do they know how to use or know not to use the stove...it seems basic for a 12 yo but these things aren’t always taught, on the other hand some 8 year olds have no problems staying home alone. Many things to consider beyond age [/quote]
