Arizona has not passed legislation about leaving children at home. However, there are child welfare laws that can be applied if the child is left in a hazardous situation and is not able to look after themselves. LEGAL AGE There are very few states in the U.S. with legal minimum ages, but many state agencies have published guidelines. Georgia, Illiniois, Maryland and Oregon are a few of the states with very specific ages. Typically 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. What are the child welfare laws that can be applied it a child is left alone at home in the state of Arizona

One guideline from a California child welfare representative suggests that 8 year olds and over can be left at home for a brief amount of time(such as just after school). The most common statement is that a child's maturity should be the determining factor and not just age.

It is the parents choice.Another View: If the child support is mandated by court order, you have no choice in the matter - you must pay through the end of the legally mandated period or until he 'ages out."As for the child "choosing" to leave home to live with his GF's family - unless he is legally emancipated in the state of his residence he cannot LEGALLY do so. How his guardian parent chooses to address this situation is up to them.
