What were the weirdest rules parents asked you to follow?

This thread was a gem and it would be a travesty if I did not share it with you.

Go for it.

If you were a babysitter and got some outrageous rules from the parents when you showed up to

babysit the kids. Number one, I used to regularly babysit one of my younger cousins. At nap time,

I had to put her in a zip-up pajama with feet. I then had to duct tape the zipper down and duct

I had to, I then had to duct tape the zipper down and duck... I had to...

I then had to duct tape the zipper down and duct tape the wrist in a way that wasn't restricting,

but she couldn't pull her hands, so she couldn't pull her hands into her onesie.

If I didn't do this, she would pull her hands in and dig in her diaper.

My aunt got tired of cleaning poop covered walls regularly. Something sounds dangerous. Well, so, yeah, the duct tape was at the wrist. A child's wrist just seems dangerous to me. It seems wrong. All right, next one. If Brady stands by the door, it just means he needs to go out. Open the door and let him back inside in a few minutes.

Brady was a four-year-old boy. Oh, come on. I was wondering, I'm like, the dog, the cat? Yeah, I guess he enjoyed going pee-pee outside. So if he stood by the door... I can understand it. That meant it was time for him to go outside and... To go number one. This four-year-old wants to go out and ground.

Nature, man.

Yeah.

I had to go number one. This four-year-old wants to go out and ground.

Nature man.

Yeah.

I had to put the kids to sleep with the CD player going.

That wasn't the weird part.
