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?

PJM's post reminds me ...Of a situation in which I was staying at the house of a girlfriend whose family was very Christian. I was out with the girl in question when I realised I had left a used johnny on the floor beside the bed. When we got back, the johnny was gone. Oddly enough, nothing was said. I did notice a few days later that her mother began using words outside her usual vocabulary - words which I had made up as code in my diary to describe what I was doing to her daughter in her home. Still no punishment, though. I reckon the old dear liked it.
