Credited to Ducky - http://www.ubersite.com/m/118097 for making me think about childhood memories
------------------------
The first time I tried to run away I was four years old...
My auntie and uncle were babysitting a week before Christmas. They used to own a proper VW Camper Van; last of the original hippies. I remember mum and dad got all dressed up. Mum's perfume was permeating through the house and dad looked smart in a rarely worn suit. It felt like Christmas.
We had open fires throughout the house and it was huge. I loved it. It had banisters running from the third floor right down to the ground. Often my brother, two sisters and I would go shooting down that banister which was particularly good when mum had polished it. We'd also take plastic trays, sledges, sleeping bags or anything else which made a good platform for skidding down the stairs and shooting out the door into the piercing cold winter darkness. Anyway, I digress...
At the tender age of four years old I more than believed in Santa Claus. I remember I was upset and crying because I didn't want mum and dad to go out. They said the wrong thing to try and calm me down... "We're going to see Santa Claus at the North Pole and if you aren't good and let us go out, you won't get any presents!"
Well, that was it, I was off, I was screaming the house down. Goddamnit, I wanted to see fucking Santa Claus! Minus the cursing and swearing of course as I'm pretty sure those words hadn't quite been etched into my vocabulary. I cried and I howled until finally my mum and dad sneaked out the front door and my auntie and uncle dragged me kicking and screaming to my bed.
I don't know how it was for anybody else but I could not sleep a wink around Christmas. I blame that on the house because it was such a perfect Christmas setting with its open fireplaces, sheepskin rugs, massive real Christmas tree and smell of turkey and Christmas cake throughout. If Santa Claus was going to make an appearance, it was going to be down my chimney in my living room.
I was sharing a room with my big sister at the time but she must have fallen asleep somewhere else because she never went to bed. Still excited about my parent's rendezvous with Santa Claus, I hatched a cunning plan.
Slowly I crept out of bed. For some reason I thought it imperative that I make my bed to mum standards. I went about my task with care and precision until ever crease was out of duvet so it looked like I'd never been to bed. I sneaked over to my sister's wardrobe and carefully removed her school uniform from its coat hangers. The skirt was massive! It was a kilt and I had to use the pin to pin the waist so it didn't fall down to my ankles. I put on a white shirt which was like a night gown and a clip on tie. Finally I removed her black patent shoes from the bottom of the wardrobe and put them on. They were about ten sizes too big but I didn't care, they were essential for the plan. You see... I thought if I was in my sister's school uniform anybody who saw me wouldn't know I wasn't old enough to be outside late. After all, my big sister was a lot bigger than me and she got to stay up later.
I said my auntie and uncle were first generation hippies and I have a feeling they must have been in the living room getting stoned because they didn't hear me go out. I closed the front door and took my first step onto my icy front path. My shoes were too big so rather than walk, I sort of skated / skied along out on to the main road. I walked along the pavement terrified at the bright lights of the cars passing by, I couldn't see a thing. I remember pausing at a junction wondering to myself in which direction Santa Claus would live. Quite rationally, thought for a four year old,I reasoned he would live up hill. I proceeded across the road and had just started my ascent into the industrial estate when a car pulled over. Mum and dad had told me never to speak to strangers...
"Oh my God! Is that Liz and Robert's daughter!" I heard from inside the dark interior of the vehicle assailing me.
I said nothing.
"We'd better get her home, what the hell is she doing out? What is she wearing?"
Two large hands picked me up and bundled me into the back of the car. I didn't say a word; I had no idea who these people were.
They got me home and in all honesty, I'd only made it a couple of hundred yards along the road before I was picked up. My auntie and uncle smacked me harder than I'd ever been smacked before. They didn't even ask me where I was going or allow me to speak. A disservice which put them well down the mental list of relatives I liked. I was for the second time that evening dragged kicking and screaming to my bedroom. Again, I could not sleep for the excitement of mum and dad coming home.
A few hours later I heard my mum and dad's voices downstairs. I heard shouting and screaming and now I know in my head that mum and dad realised my auntie and uncle had been smoking weed whilst babysitting us and they were furious because I had managed to sneak out. Shortly afterwards I heard the big vroom of my auntie and uncle's VW camper van pull out of the driveway.
My mum came into my room and turned on the light. "Why were you running away?"
She was clearly upset.
Finally I had the chance to plead my case...
"I only wanted to meet Santa Claus and tell him please to bring me a Teddy Ruxpin for Christmas instead of a Smartie Bear because I like Teddy Ruxpin better and I missed him off my Christmas list."
My mum didn't say another word about it AND I got Teddy Ruxpin for Christmas.

====================
In my video collection, I have some 1950's kids' toy commercials. It strikes me how common toy guns were. (Now they're totally taboo, which has helped create the crime-free society we live in today, rofl.) My favorite toy gun commercial shows a little boy "shooting" at a real policeman with his toy gun, and the cop shakes his head and smiles like he's thinking, "Aw, what a cute little dickens." If that kid tried that today, he'd be pushing up daisies.

My wee nephew at 7 was playing grand theft auto, picking up prostitutes, watching the car go up and down, throwing out said prostitute then running over her for her cash...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
ugh, this is EXACTLY what made me try and ban it from the house (even though I'd play it when they were in bed). GTA san andreas isn't so bad though.
===============================================================
what's so bad about banging hookers in an alley and then running them over with your car to get your money back when you're done with them?
--------
Probably perfectly acceptable behaviour for you Hidden as you can sneak up behind them and do the whole deed discretely and covertly. As much as i'd like my nephew to grow into an alley dwelling, prostitute preying manwhore, I still think seven years old is a little young to be introduced to the trade.

Haha, he watches Family Guy, he gets so much from that.
The other day, in the car, he pipes up 'Twins, Swedish, my place, now'.
He knows the most inappropriate things for an 8 year old.
Can't wrap him in cotton wool though. We were watching the lunchtime news once and it was reporting a string of prostitute murders - 'mum, what is a sex crime and a curb crawler?' nearly made me choke on my cheese and pickle sandwich.

My grand parents had a bedford caravette, much larger than the VW camper vans. It was awesome. my childhood memories are golden 'cos of that thing.
I tried to get the other half to hire a camper van for the week and go down south. when he saw the price (700 a week min) he kinda lost interest.

I DID have my teenage mutant ninja turtles action figures and the crown jewel to that was my krang action figure with the removable brain from the cyborgs stomach. (which, as it turns out was actually krang)
------------------
I liked my Teddy Ruxpin, my herd of wild My Little Ponies and much to Orphelia's disgust and probably satisfaction that she summed me up quite well once, my large town of Sylvannian families. I also loved my dusty bin full of lego and some cross bow and catupult game where you had two castles and had to launch counter things at each castle to try and blow them up. Oh yeah, and my spirographs.
I abosolutely HATED Barbie. My mum used to make me play dolls with my little sister and her doll house. There was nothing more excruciatingly painful than that.

A likely story! My brother was the only boy with three sisters and he always had time for his action men, bat mobiles and transformers.
Sister toys were for stamping, throwing up trees and out windows to make us cry! Big bully brother.

+2 Teddy Ruxpin.
My asshole brother ripped my teddy's head off. He was jealous because I loved it so much.

He was my favourite toy ever. I had mine until his eyes didn't move, his mouth didn't work and he mangled every tape I put in him.
