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?

I really respect my parentsI think they did a really good job of raising me and my sister, they were always fair, always reasonable and a lot of the time gave us the benefit of the doubt.
My sister was banned from having house parties after they found a sofa (not one of ours funilly enough) in one of the ponds, a tent pitched on the conservatory roof and several buckets of vomit on the garage roof (i think people planned to throw them at passers-by).
My dad drove all the way to Alton Towers to pick my sister up early from a school trip and then telephoned all the parents of the kids at the party to tell them what had been going on.
I got a sexual health talk from my mum because my sister told her i'd had a one night stand in their room. That was about it.
I'm holdng a reunion barbecue for my year-group at the house this summer, i'm hiding all the buckets, sofa's and tents.
