[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It depends on state law. It's not illegal in DC. I have totally mowed the yard, walked the dog around the block, walked to CVS down the block for diapers. When I do so, I inform my neighbors who have baby monitor privileges/key (and for whom I do similar sleeping baby monitoring in emergencies). I don't get in my car and I am not gone longer than 20 minutes. [/quote] DC does not specify a minimum age for leaving a child at home alone, but leaving a baby home alone could easily be considered neglect.[/quote]
