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?

nobodies foolIts Unstablemum again folks.
On a school night, she wouldnt let me do anything or go anywhere.
Except homework.
So, I devised a cunning plan with my bezzie m8 (sic) and started going to his house up the road to 'do my homework'.
Yeah, I'd done it all on the bus home.
Get changed at his, be in the local 'we dont i.d anyone ever' pub by half six, get home by half ten.
effing steaming everytime.
It was obvious where I'd been.
She never said anything, as my homework was always done, and I never got into trouble, and had a healthy respect for my alcohol tolerence levels and was in at a decent time.
So she cant have done too bad a job really.
She raised 3 of us on her own and we had her alzhiemers ridden mum living with us too.
Great lady, taken before her time.
