Useless adviceAs a new parent, people seem to think it's OK to pass on any and every old wives tale possible. "Don't hug him too much". What? Quite what possesses people to pass on baseless, idiotic, useless advice I don't know.
That said, I quite often give car drivers directions and then, after they've moved off, realise that I've sent them down a bike-only route, so I can give as good as I get.
What useless advice have you been given (or handed out) recently?

Plastic bags keep telling me"Keep away from children"
Bit tough, being as I'm a parent and everything. Luckily, PurpleGod Jr.'s the best kid in the whole world, so I don't mind disobeying this advice.
Of course, *everyone* *else's* kids are bug-ridden sacks of contagion, so maybe it's only 99.9% good advice.
