how old do you have to be to stay home alone in england
Jahanara, 10, London, England. You should be 12 unless you're a sensible 11-year-old, like me.. Ben, 11, Stockton-on-Tees, England. I think the age children can stay home alone should be 10 or 11 because you should be sensible at that age and know what to do if there's a problem.
