I was alone for long periods of time in my room but I don't think that counts because my parents were right next door.
I was 14 when I was finally allowed to see friends outside school, that was my first experience of being unsupervised. This only happened because I went out to see them when I was at my granny's. I was caught because I didn't get home on time (it wasn't late but my parents were there for a certain time to pick me up). I thought I'd get punished but my parents just said that I was long overdue being allowed to go out and see friends for a couple of hours at a reasonable time of day. So they let me from then on.
As a child, how much of the time were you left unsupervised?
