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?

AlisonNot me, but an ex-girlfriend. Despite being 21, she had to be in by 11pm. Most times we went out, I wound up having to do totally illegal speeds back from the cinema, putting their precious baby at risk, to make it back before curfew.
One night, we didn't make it. Her Dad had locked the door on the dot of 11 and chained it. Alison knocks. No answer. Knocks again. No answer.
So she put a brick throw her parents door so she could get in.
Oddly the curfew was lifted after that.
