Strict ParentsI always thought my parents were quite strict, but I can't think of anything they actually banned me from doing, whereas a good friend was under no circumstances allowed to watch ITV because of the adverts.
This week's Time Out mentions some poor sod who was banned from sitting in the aisle seats at cinemas because, according to their mother, "drug dealers patrol the aisles, injecting people in the arm."
What were you banned from doing as a kid by loopy parents?

like KaptinKurtzI wasn't allowed to read those crappy "Point Horror" booked or "Nancy Drew" stories when I were a young lass.
*Mind you, my parents are university lecturers (my Father is an Archaeologist, my Mother an English Professor who also specialises in the depiction of child death in funerary monuments of the 17th century as a hobby) and I had the reading standard of an adult by the time I was 8. I went to boarding school, sated my lust for trashy novels on Jilly Cooper etc, and my annoying precociousness died down somewhat.*
