13 is old enough for most responsible youth to babysit, provided they have domonstrated some level of responsibility. Obviously, this 13 year old is not competent enough and the mother used poor judgement. I was babysitting 3 to 7 year olds when I was 12.
No new laws! You cannot outlaw stupidity.

There is a HUGE difference between a 3-7 year old and 9 month old.
