I mean look at all the safety features on that carseat!

So that brings us to today's question — what's something your parents did when you were a kid that would never be OK today?

Did they, for example, let you ride your bike without a helmet...and, oh yeah, help you pull off highly questionable stunts?

Did they let you take a swig or two of an adult beverage and think it was funny?

Did they let you stay home alone WAY before they probably should have?

Or worse, have you babysit younger siblings way before you should've?

Or did they do something that — in retrospect — you kind of can't believe actually happened!
