chosen: The appropriate age at which a child can stay home alone depends on several factors such as their physical development and their emotional maturity. Generally, children should not stay home alone before the age of 12 due to the risks associated with them wandering into areas of the house that may be unsafe, or struggling to handle difficult phone calls from strangers or unexpected visitors. Furthermore, young children may find it difficult to entertain themselves without proper guidance or supervision. For this reason, it is best to supervise their play and prepare them for potential emergencies before giving them the chance to stay home alone.
