Re: NYS Child Laws

There is no law about leaving a 13 year old home alone. 13 year old girls babysit for young children, depending on their maturity.

Even boys at 13 years old are mature enough.

The better question is do you feel that you can leave your 13 year old home alone.

In most circumstances the answer would be yes.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Also, as a legal fee, please refer me out to some of your friends.
