A: A fourth cousin is someone in a family who shares the same great-great-great-grandparents. First cousins share the same grandparents and second cousins have the same great-grandparents. Ordinal numbers of cousins are in the same generation as each other.
8 to 10 years-Should not be left alone for more than 1Â½ hours and only during daylight and early evening hours. 11 to 12 years-May be left alone for up to 3 hours but not late at night or in circumstances requiring inappropriate responsibility. 13 to 15 years-May be left unsupervised, but not overnight.
Most places believe that 12 or 13 is okay to leave home alone for a couple of hours during daylight hours.   Legal Age   There are very few states in the U.S. with legal minimum ages for children home alone, but many state agencies have published guidelines.ypically 8 year olds and over can be left at home for up to several hours (usually after school before a parent gets home from work). 12 years old appears to be the most common recommendation. http://www.latchkey-kids.com/latchkey-kids-age-limits.htm provides a state by state comparison.
