It depends on the family life. If you have a hard life at home and can live somewhere else and escape that place no age is too young in my opinion.

At any age you feel and know you can't be independent nor well be capable of getting through life and build yourself a good life without your parents' support

That depends on where you live. You should look up laws regarding that. Also, consider your situation. Can you afford to leave home and live comfortably on your own?

Generally speaking you want to be legally an adult in your country of origin before you leave home. At least withing the United States, your parents are required to care for you until the age of 18 although you can be legally emancipated at earlier ages.

First of all it depends on what kind of situation it is. If a child is going on a playdate/sleepover I would say around 6 or 7. But leaving the house with friends without a parent or guardian around i would say 13 or 14. at the least.

I would honestly say that unless you are 18 or older, you shouldn't try to leave home. If you are going through a situation where you are getting abused, then you should get help, and in that case, you will be taken to a better place

The age that is too young to leave home would be around 14-16. Mainly because young teenagers are not ready for what the world has to offer.

Age isn't the criteria; its physical and emotional maturity. Of course spiritual and mental maturity are also important but you need the physical and emotional foundation for being responsible for yourself.
