This is a question Useless advice

As a new parent, people seem to think it's OK to pass on any and every old wives tale possible. "Don't hug him too much". What? Quite what possesses people to pass on baseless, idiotic, useless advice I don't know.

That said, I quite often give car drivers directions and then, after they've moved off, realise that I've sent them down a bike-only route, so I can give as good as I get.

What useless advice have you been given (or handed out) recently?

Duh
My little boy has a soft toy Giraffe from Mothercare - Aptly named "Mr Giraffe", he lives with Mr Hippo, Mr Lion, Mr Elephant and Barney (Don't ask).

All of them sport labels about washing, as you would expect - however all the labels also say "Don't iron".

I mean, why - why oh why would you even think about it???
