The states have different laws and it is usually 13 but it all depends on the maturity of the child.

Laws vary from state to state, so you would need to check on the laws for your state, but it is generally 12 to 13, but other factors need to be figured in also...anything that is construed as leaving a child at risk opens yourself up to potential charges of child neglect or endangerment by Child Protective Services.
Here is a website that can provide yourself additional information in making your decision.
