AT what age would you leave your teenagers and go away overnight?

personally, I think it depends on the maturity of the teen/s involved. (and who will be with them, how many, how old, are neighbors available in case of emergency.....)
legally, I think it is age 16.

I could probably feel comfortable leaving my oldest by the time she is 16-she happens to be very mature for age. My next one is a bit immature so I cant imagine leaving her overnight at all

Oh, my kids wouldn't be alone....I can wake up on any given morning and find a few kids sleeping all over the place anyway; what they'd do if I were really gone, lol!
