One or two hours, or sometimes none. Usually out playing football, or something. I was left unsupervised because playing football with your mates when your parents are around isn't cool, and trying to be cool is important to little 11 year old dom180. Alternatively, I'd play alone in my room either with my parents out or working or shopping or something.
I don't think it had any impact on me whatsoever, although I have occasional good memories of being out with friends. There were also periods where I'd refuse to leave the house at all, tell my parents to tell my friends I was sick or away somewhere if they came to the door. I guess those times would qualify as zero hours :P
As a child, how much of the time were you left unsupervised?
