Miles Mason said while there is no rule, the suggested age is ten depending on circumstances.

“I think neighborhood would fall into that consideration, and in terms of how close a parent or guardian may be nearby,” he said.

“Accidents happen and second guessing a parental decision of I’m just next door, it’s an emergency — I don’t think it’s government’s role,” added Mason.
