I believe it was sometime in middle school, maybe as early as 5th grade? To be honest, I don't really remember, but I'll say I was around 12...
The only specific instruction I remember was to call my parents as soon as I got home. Other than that, they knew that I wasn't stupid and that I wouldn't do anything stupid while I was home alone. My parents had a lot of trust in me, probably because I didn't give them too much trouble.
