Strict Parents
I 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?

A strict parent's view
I didn't let our kids - now 35, 33 and 24 btw - watch the A Team. This was not because I was a mardy git - I had much better ways of proving that. Nor was it because it was crap - which it was. It was because every week bullets were sprayed around willynilly and NOBODY was killed - not the right message in my book.
