Georgia Law - "Georgia law makes it pretty clear. Between the ages of 9 and 12, you can leave a child alone for up to two hours. Age 12 and up, no more than 12 hours at a time." I find nothing about leaving a child alone with a younger sibling.

This is an official website and lists state by state latchkey, laws Latchkey Kids - CARE (Call Reassurance) Calling Service Checks on Home Alone Children. 12 years of age is the legal age to be left alone at home. For any more information, read the website.

What state are you referring to?

I could find a news article about it that said GA law was very clear about it, but to be honest I had trouble finding the actual GA law they claimed was that clear, but NOhelp was correct on the ages according to the news article
