[quote=Anonymous]Sorry OP. As others have said there is no legal age limit to leaving your child home in VA. [url]https://www.dss.virginia.gov/files/division/dfs/cps/intro_page/publications/general/alone.pdf[/url]. That is from family services. They do mention maturity, accessibility of the parent, and situation for their determination. Even the counties don't have any laws, just guidelines that are open to interpretation. I would use some nest or other cameras inside the house that you can periodically check on during the day. I assume the 10 year old is old enough to call if anything is a problem and should know to call 911 if there is a true emergency. Good luck. Sorry the schools and teachers are doing this to you.[/quote]
