Can a 5 year old be left with a 15 year old?

Yes. My sister is 10 years older, and she baby sat me even younger than 15. But she was also very responsible at that age.

It depends, but I used to watch my sister all the time when I was younger, and I'm 11 years older than her.

Yes! I basically raised my siblings!

How mature is the 15 year old?

That depends on the 15 year old. My 14 year old granddaughter babysits her 4 siblings. With video assistance from her Mom.

It depends, some 15 year olds are parents already, others aren't even able to take care of themselves.

It depends on the state first of all. Then, do you trust that 15 year old alone with the 5 year old.

Depends on the maturity of the 15 year old and how responsible that person is.

Yes,as long as one of them is mature enough to lolk after the other.

If the 15 year old isn't a knucklehead, sure.

Sure, as long as the 15 year old is responsible.

Depends on how mature they are
