This is a question 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?

not really my parents
although they went so mad when they saw this report that i got grounded and had my beloved beetle car keys taken away from me for a month. but some of the comments from my last school report are pretty amusing:

ENGLISH

"rswipe needs to learn very quickly indeed that talent is not enough, she also needs to do some work"

"it would be a tragedy if this pupil did not achieve what she is capable of. sadly this now appears inevitable"

HISTORY

"rswipe has let her oxford disappointment colour everything else. she now faces disappointment in her a-levels too"

"if she does not get the marks of which she is eminently capable, she only has herself to blame"

LATIN

"rswipe needs to learn that pretty english will NOT pass this exam for her. she has a total lack of knowledge and understanding of the subject which is entirely her own fault"

"her arrogant approach has propelled her to the verge of failure... and beyond"

COMMUNITY SERVICE (instead of games. i was lazy there too)

"it's the old people i feel sorry for. her breathtakingly arrogant attitude has let the school down but more than that, it has let the vulnerable elderly down"

in my defence, they were all barking bloody mad and i am quite sure they wouldn't have missed my hour a week talking to them over lunch, or even noticed when i wasn't there.

anyway, happy result, AAAB thank you very much indeed, but that was probably only due to the month's grounding meaning i had nothing else to do but work...
