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?

daddy driving half nakedat the age of 16 a friend whose parents where going on a holyday cruise invited me at his house to spend new year's eve with him and a bunch of schoolmates..
my parents were not too happy about it 'cause they had strong family values and thought i should spend it with them..i insisted so much that my dad said:" ok but i'll come and pick you up at 1am..(better than nothing i thought)
he dropped me 'round dinner time..not that we ate anything that night, but we made sure we tried every single bottle of alcohol in the house, even the small "souvenirs from the alpes" bottles (those that come by six of different lethal flavors..). most of us ended up puking everywhere in the house..even in the "rare tropical fishes aquarium"..
but time passed very fast and my dad was waiting outside in his car..i tried to act sober but i couldn't stop laughing when i noticed he was only wearing a dressing gown..and sleepers (it was just a 5 mns drive and he didn't feel like dressing up again in the middle of the night)..
on the way home we got stopped by the cops who were doing random alcohol tests to drivers..they also laughed very hard when they asked dad to get out the car, as he didn't have his driver's license with him..they laughed a little less when the alcohol testing balloon turned red.
