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?

Shit HeadMe and my brother were once overheard by our dad talking to a friend about another friend, who we described as a shit head. Not good, not having that sort of foul disgusting language etc etc. Really quite a big deal was made of it.
Fast forward many years and one day we teach my parents a card game. Called.....Shit Head. Pretty soon the "foul, disgusting" words are uttered by dad, although admittedly in a very different context from how we'd used them. Me and brother exchange secret smile - moral high ground never felt so good.
