@kirstyketley: Legally, there is no age minimum to leave your child home alone but it is against the law to if they are at risk. Use your parental judgement - you know how mature and capable your child is, and what you feel comfortable with. #parentingtiktok #tiktokparenting #parentsontiktok #parentingtips #parentsupport #fyp #parenthood
need advice 🙏 I let my daughter stay at her friend's house for tea and found out my daughter and her friend were left on their own for two hours and had to make their own tea by their shelf 😔 I'm not happy cos to my knowledge her mum was there all time and both girls don't have very good cooking skills either😞 what should I do 🙏

I first left my eldest home alone when he was about 10, I knew he’d basically just stay in his room on his Xbox, 2nd child is different, she’d be running around the house with scissors

My daughter has been left since 11. She knows the rules (no using the oven, no answering the door etc) and knows to phone me or her grandparents. She's 13 at the end of the month and is usually only

30 years ago I walked back home at the age of 8 and stayed on my own until my parents returned from work. This would be impossible nowadays

In my country legally you are not allowed to be left alone overnight until you’re 18 but during the day it’s up to the parents,usually here it’s 10/11 during the day,at least from what I’ve heard

I started leaving them home on their own, for max an hour or two at 13. They're self sufficient and know not to answer the door.
