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.)

Terrible Parenting
An ex-friend of mine had this father who was as rough as hell ie bare knuckle fighting champion etc etc. He never did like either of his sons and this was highlighted when he put my ex-friend (his eldest son) in the fireplace when he was about 15 months old - while it was blazing a fire. The quick actions of his mother hearing his screams were the only thing that saved him.
