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?

Unfortunatlymy mum suffers from MPD, meaning while she was very strict, she was in no way consistant. My dad was wonderful, and his only rule was "be honest". He was ok with us going out and doing what we like, as long as we talked to him about it. My mum on the other hand, once had a screaming fit at me for having an asthma attack, and insisted on sending me to school with cheese sandwiches, dispite the fact i'm life threataningly alergic to dairy, and would check with a dinner lady she knew that i had eaten them... if not, she'd force feed them to me, then scream at me for being lazy when i stopped breathing... fortunatly, by this age (5) I knew how to treat it myself. My mums so very very nuts
Sorry for the length
