What silly rules did you to have follow growing up?

I was not allowed to call adults by their first name. Only the 2 neighbors. I always had to call them Mr. Ms. or Mrs/ last name. Even as an adult my mom still refers to a lot of people like that and I still call them by their last names.

My mom would lose her **** whenever anyone walked on the floor she just mopped. It’s like she mopped it in gold or something. Even now I have to “walk
around” or wait.

I was not allowed toys on Easter. Only candy and eggs in my basket. My Jewish grandma would bring us toys on Easter and my mom would get mad and say “Easter is not about giving presents!” She wouldn’t take them away or anything though. I got a yellow stuffed duck one year, which you’d expect to be Easterish but it still pissed my mom off that my Grandma was giving any type of gift.
