What are some of the things that your parents forbid you to do when you were young and you snuck behind thier back and did anyway?
I used to go swimming at this one place that my parents told me I could never go to...I think they were worried about the rip currents and the sharks...I never had a problem swimming there but I am glad they never found out about it till I was older.  
My grandparents forbid me to climb on huge sawdust piles......I did that anyway too  ...I now know that the reason that they didn't want me to climb on them was one caved in on a little boy one time and he suffocated....Now that I look back on it I see how dangerous it was.

The main restrictions my mother put on me were not to go near lakes or the bay by myself. We had miles and miles of forest behind my house but she never minded me wandering there.

OMG....that blows my mind, Custis. The animals that live in the forrest, the chance of getting lost. 
When we were kids, we were not allowed near the river. Living in an old mill town
there was a river, and part of it ran through our neighborhood. One of our little playmates fell in, winter coat on, drowned, and was pulled out of frigid water by one of the women in the neighborhood. Sad. And sometimes, in spite of snapping turtles and leeches, and the like, we got a lil too close anyway.

Okay, this will let you know how old I am, lol.
I snuck in to see Rosemary's Baby when I was 15. (At the time, it was considered to be a VERY bad movie since it depicted the devil impregnating Rosemary).
The movie theatre was on one of the main streets in town, and the ticket booth was outside on the sidewalk. I was scared to death someone driving by would recognize me, and would call my mother. Whew! I got managed NOT to get caught.

Don't stick marbles up your nose.....
My Mom use to babysit a boy that did this. We were all just rolling them down the hallway floor, he picked one up and just shoved it in!
It was stuck pretty good, too (I think he was 5)

At our grandparent's PA home, my sister and I were warned to never go any where near the railroad tracks that were 1/4 a mile behind their house. Can't tell you how many times we sneaked away and put pennies on the tracks to get them flattened by the frequent trains going by.
At our parents home in FL, in the early 60's when a hurricane came dead on to our county, we were told to stay inside the house when the "eye" passed thru. So I found the opportunity to get my sister and we sneaked out the back door into the back yard, into the passing "eye". Saw an awesome sight that will never happen again to either of us.
Told to never, ever drag race.....raced my dad's '57 Ford convertible over the Clearwater Causeway every chance I got.
There's a lot more, but I don't want to take up all the space.......(besides, the 'ol memory ain't what it used to be)

Mother told me never to ride in cars with boys. Riding in cars with boys is how you get pregnant

We were told we couldn't be outside after dark - so we would use our fire ladders to get down to the balcony then used the air conditioner unit to get to the ground!
Of course being from Indy - and this will really date me cuz I remember when they got their start - we were not allowed to listen to Bob & Tom! You think they are bad now - they have mellowed with age!

Muse it should be okay to ride in cars with a boy if each person has at least one foot on the floor.
