Strict Parents
I always thought my parents were quite strict, but I can't think of anything they actually banned me from doing, whereas a good friend was under no circumstances allowed to watch ITV because of the adverts.
This week's Time Out mentions some poor sod who was banned from sitting in the aisle seats at cinemas because, according to their mother, "drug dealers patrol the aisles, injecting people in the arm."
What were you banned from doing as a kid by loopy parents?

Girl Guides
When I was little, all my little friends were in Brownies and then Girl Guides when they were older. I wasn't allowed to join because my father was convinced that the whole Scout movement was a facist organisation. The fact that my local troop were 90% non-white was deemed irrelevant.
My father thinks all WASPs are racist, facist bigots. He does not see the irony in this.
