From the age of 7+ I didn't have mandatory adult supervision. My brother is 4 years older so he watched my sister and I. My parents were poor so they couldn't afford a babysitter. My mom works in retail so sometimes she wouldn't be home until 9pm. I don't remember my dad being home ever, even though he didn't really work.
So from 2pm-9pm, somewhere around 3 days a week, we'd be home alone.
As a child, how much of the time were you left unsupervised?
