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?

Still not sure why really, but....
...Back in the mid nineties, one of my friends wasn't allowed to go to the local "Laser Quest" / "Quaser" centre as was the then fad, because his parents (whom were a fair bit older than the average) firmly believed that "lasers are the weapons of the future and they didn't want their son being trained to fight in future wars" So being a good bunch of lads, we went without him!... haven't seen him in years..... oddly
