People Share Ridiculously Uncommon House Rules That They Grew Up Following

Every household is unique.

We all grow up differently. Since most of us grew up in our parents’ house, we had to live by their rules. We did not ask any questions about the rules that our parents came up with because we were too young and well, we did not pay the bills so we did not have much say in how the house was run. Some rules made sense. Our parents mostly just want what is best for us. They want to protect us and give us the best quality of life. To keep us safe, they came up with some rules that most of us grew up with. Rules such as curfews would give them surity that their children would be safe. Some rules were made to teach us manners. We did not question them much because we believed they were doing this for us.

When I was a child, my father gave everyone a curfew at 7 PM. No house member, adult or child, was allowed to stay out of the house past 7 PM. That was because he would lock all the doors and turn off every light in the house at 9 PM sharp. There were no exceptions. This continued until I was 16, and I realised it was just holding me back. That is how you get rebellious teens. I learned to lie a lot to skip curfew and eventually, as I grew up, my father gave up. I am not surprised to see that I am not the only one who grew up with such strict or ridiculous rules. There are still more stories left for you to read. Scroll down below for more.
