This is a question Useless advice

As 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?

Haddock and chips twice please...
When we were 15 or so and cherry-popping was beginning to sound inviting, a friend of mine was told by her mother:

"Don't bother having sex. Once you've done it once you'll wish you'd had fish and chips instead."
