Question

Is it permissible for a 12.5-year-old nephew to sleep over at his aunt's house? She is an unmarried woman over 50, the children used to sleep at her place often during childhood, and now he is suspended from school and they want him to be with her so he won't be alone at home or wander around.

Answer

Hello 

It is forbidden for the nephew to be secluded with the aunt.
