They're parents, it's their job!
Now, don't talk with your mouth open and finish your cabbage because there are children starving in Africa!!!

If you pick your nose in the car and someone drives into the back of you, your finger might go through your brain and give you brain damage.
My parents told me that Father Christmas's phone number was 100 and that I should just dial it and ask for him (which I did).
Another time they got me to dial 999, and report myself to the police for hitting my mum with my shoe.
With some lies parents tell, you believe them when you are 7 or whatever, so you keep believing them all your life, even though you would never be that gullible when you are older. Anyone else ever have that, where you suddenly realise something you believe was blatantly a lie your parents told you?

Hi >
Oh good grief, being a bloke, I have no personal experience of tampons. But as a Dad, I am amused by the questions I get from my two sons.
Such as: Why are girlfreinds so awkward , or why do frogs spend most of their time having a cuddle ?
Troublesome questions to explain, so I know what you mean
All the best,
Bob

You're a virgin until you've been penetrated by a males penis. lol
You're a lesbian if you've done "it" with a female.
that's that.
A lot of my friends' parents say that crap.
It's a bunch of BS.
Plus, a tampon is only about 2 inches, if even that.
It takes a lot more to actually "Pop" the "cherry."
lol
If I were you, I'd tell your parents what I just said...
You're a virgin until you've had sex, and you're not a lesbian until you've had sex with a female.
And tell them that they're full of crap and that you're not listening to them anymore.
You might get yelled at or grounded, but you'll make them realize that theyre full of BS.

My parents were sort a similar...sayings like,
'stop pulling that face, if the wind changes you'll stick like that'
'stop picking your nose, save some for the party'
Parents are mad arnt they..........very strange! I would'nt dream of saying that stuff to my kid!
Another one i just thought of is ' stop crying or i'll give you something to cry for!'
It all seems very cruel when you think about it!

my mum used to tell me that if you went to the toilet after someone had put bleach down it then the wee would combine with the bleach and make the toilet explode.
she used to say that you had to wait until the same time the next day, later on i found out it was because my dad used to go to the toilet when the bleach was down it, straight after so my mum wanted to make sure me & my sisters didn't
my youngest sister still believes it, lol

Never heard of the flat shoe thing before, but about men wearing yellow means they are gay LOL

Maman used the tampon-virgin thing. I don't think she'd ever heard of a lesbian though!

No, but my grandma thinks you aren't a virgin if you've had a cath in the hospital.
You're a virgin until you have sex. If you wear flat shoes, you'll have healthier feet and a healthy spine.

"they'll never notice going by in a train" (like if you tore your blouse and it got sewn with red thread or something) or
"No rest for the wicked" (that was a good one, covered just about everything) and if you were bleeding from a wound, had a fever, sore muscle, etc she'd say "That's just your meanness coming out".
Mom, I got hit by a car! "That's just your meanness coming out"!
Mom, a parrot bit off my nose! "That's just your meanness coming out" OR "they'll never notice going by in a train"!
