Sam,
What is amazing to me is that in my state RI, there is not age restriction for leaving your child home alone. I found that out when I took my daughter to a "home alone" seminar put on by the police department in our town. When I asked the question what age is it legally ok to let a child stay alone, I was surprised to find there isn't one. The officer just responded, "well if we show up and a 3 year old is alone we'd have a problem with that". He actually thought 8 or 9 was old enough to stay at home alone. My cynical nature tells me the real reason for the fence law is that the towns will make some cash off the building permits needed to put the fence up, so let's make a law. Yet no cash is coming in from the little kids left home alone, so no need for a law about it.
