Strict ParentsI 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?

It's the little things....I was allowed pretty much free reign when I was a nipper. Largely due to the fact that my brother and sister were much more trouble than me. Bless.
Anyway, the one severe dressing down/massive screaming argument I recall was instigated by my failure to rotate the margarine.
For those not in the know, this heinous crime involved not only opening and using a new tub of margarine, but putting it back ON TOP of the old, open one. So everyone else would be more likely to use the new one as well!
I'm surprised I'm still an upstanding member (hehe) of society and not languishing in a dingy prison cell for my crimes.
