This is a question 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.)

Not sure if this counts
as I did it for her own good. But, my little girl kept asking if she could have some coke, I replied with a very firm 'No.'
But being the persistent little tyke that she is, she kept pestering me and asking why not. So, rather than explaining the effects of sugar, caffeine and additives to the pesky toddler, I told her about the secret ingredient of Coca Cola, the one they don't tell people about. That's right, I told my daughter that the extra ingredient in Coke is... Monkey sick.

Oh, and I once saw a little 'un wearing a babygrow that said 'They Shake Me' across the front
