What age to leave children

I would like to start dating again but I am a single parent. What age would you leave an older sibling to watch younger ones so
you can date? Younger children will be 10 and 7 what age would you say the oldest would need to be as a minimum? Just looking for general advice. It will be during the day/ evening not late at night or what age were your children if you were in this situation?

OP posts:
Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

I do leave then but I wrongly assumed it would be a date at night time. I didn't read the last paragraph.

They are fine alone in the house if they are alone but argue a lot and physically fight if they are together so it wouldn't be fair.
