Strict Parents
I 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?

mum's always right
my mum:
wouldn't let me watch telly before 4 on a weekday, wouldn't buy me a shellsuit when all my mates had them, wouldn't let me watch an 18 cert film until I was 15, made me tidy my room before I got my pocket money...
...and she was totally right about all of it. I love my mum :) oh, except that her and dad used to give me beer with dinner from age 14 ish and now I find it weird eating without something alcoholic to go with it....meh.
