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?

Ok, let's carry this on.
My parents were chilli connoisseurs - more so my Mum.
When the family came over, they'd cook up some evil chilli that they could eat, but would cause any other person to spontaneously combust. (It was actually nice)
We were told specifically to NOT eat it - Goes without saying we did and the upset to our stomachs was fairly spectacular.
The family on the other hand were warned and would then eat it, sweating like the proverbial.
Funny, for us, yes.
Oh, right, this is off on a proper tangent isn't it....
Not sorry!
