Terrible Parenting
My parents used to lock my brother, sister and I in the car while they went to the pub for a "quick one" after work. This quick one might last several hours, during which they would send bottles of Indian Tonic Water to us by way of refreshment.
On one particularly cold evening, bored stupid, we lit a small bonfire on the back seat of the car using the cigarette lighter and the contents of the glove box. We owe our lives to passing winos. (BTW: Please no more Maddie or Jesus gags, they've been done.)

Rabbit abuse
When I was 5 or 6 I was on a family day out to a local castle. Apparently without provocation and with what I perceived to be a murderous look in his eyes, my dad lunged off the path and callously beat a rabbit to death with a big stick. I was mortified.
Looking back, a third party would have noticed that the rabbit had been mortally injured by a fox (or something) and that this was actually a very humane act. I still think he's a closet psycho.
