Terrible ParentingMy 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.)

Bad ParentingWhen I was a teacher we had one kid who constantly swore at his classmates and teachers. Eventually the parents were called in to see the deputy head. The kid's dad listened politely, clearly embarrassed, while he was being appraised of his son's foul-mouthed misdeeds, then said
"I'm so sorry, but I just don't know where he gets the fucking language from."
