When I was young on St. Patrick's day my siblings and I would make leprechaun traps. We would make them out of shoeboxes and tape and we would put food in there as bait. One year my parents used erasers and ink to stamp little footprints onto my box and put a little metal leprechaun inside my box. I thought I had actually caught a leprechaun and it turned to metal. It was really cool and looking back I appreciate that they did that for me.
Have your parents ever done something like that for you in your childhood?
Edit: This really was supposed to be a happy thread but I should've known it was going to turn out this way.

Oh the joys of spending all day everyday for weeks learning how to write, and getting jabbed in hand if i held a pencil or fork wrong.

They dressed me up as a little hobbit boy and kinda just let me loose in the backyard

My mom once got busted at a meth lab when I was in middle school, it made the front page of the paper I think. She had this thing where she liked to go to jail every 2 years for awhile there.

They didn't. =(

Magical isn't a word to describe it. My mom always threw the best parties, and my dad always was able to convince my mom that I could play "violent" video games within reason (really though: Battlefront wasn't that bad of a game. For a 4/5 year old? Maybe. But it was pretty tame).

My parents were pretty much never around. But my uncle was and he was awesome! We used to make movies in the basement with our shirts off. But then he said I was getting too old. Bummer

Edited by Panda: 2/12/2015 8:45:51 PMI was probably 4 years old. I was playing with a little frog I found in front of my apartment complex. My mom came outside and saw it. She threw it behind the dumpster and dragged me inside and scrubbed my hand. [i]Magical[/i] Edit: tl;dr: [b]I saw a frog fly without wings[/b]

My Dad always slapped me in the face when I fell off my bike but besides that... everything was normal.. lol

Dude they did the classic Santa Claus tricks like eat some of the cookies and milk, say they tried to wake me up, they even cut off the power one time when I was determined to see him. They were like that for everything down to the tooth fairy, they really did make it very magical

They made it miserable was fine until my brother was born when I was 5. Unfortunately he got diagnosed with autism then it all turned to shit. My dad went to the pub and never came back, my mam was depressed all the time. I never did anything or went anywhere.

Lies just straight lies

They touched my places

Nothing that I can recall. If anything, they restricted my creativity and childish outlook.
