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?

My Elder Brother.....and my stepbrother both received new bikes; they were older and taller than me, and got spiffy new 12-gear racers (this was long before Mountain Bikes).
ABout a year later it was time for me to upgrade from my Raleigh Striker, so I said I wanted a BMX, as all boys in the mid-80s did.
I got a Racer; I wasn't allowed a BMX.
So I rode my racer down stairs, across fields, and wore the back tire down completely doing skids. I completely fucked it; father was not pleased - should have bought me a BMX.
