Did you have strange rules growing up?

I can sympathise with several of these stories. Getting dressed for breakfast. Strict bedtime. Asking permission to leave the table. No trousers or tights.

Everyone had to dress up for dinner for which you better never be late.

@MrsRachelEvans Looking back the ritual dinners were a very important part of growing up, a lot of important conversations took place there and everyone was involved.

@Subsumedpat yes even now my dad does not allow phones etc at the table.
