Petition Make a law on age for babysitting and being left home alone

As confusing as it is some people think it's wrong to let teenagers under 16 look after their siblings or other young children, whilst others see no harm As it can be good to trust these days and at other times there are risks..

More details

Do we educate our children how to deal with emergencies when they arise or how to cook their own food without setting fire to the kitchen.
Just think a law should be in place to protect not only the children but others around and make it a legal age to babysit
