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?

corporal punishmentthey were fairly clever when they brought in the law, as lolwhites said using a weapon is a strict no-no, beating your child in public with a fist is a no-no, slapping once with an open palm across the arse, back of legs or back of hand wouldn't be punished. it was brought in mainly to prevent child abuse, so not so much strict parenting as strict government
