Now closed: What things do you get up to that might shock your children if they ever found out (or indeed did shock them if they have already uncovered the truth!!)? Talk to L'Oreal and you could win a goodie bag worth £200

When I was 2 I drank a glass of tadpoles, I was thirsty and my mum didn't give me a drink quick enough so I put my cup in the garden pond and drank that. Its not crazy but it makes me feel sick just thinking about it.

I've always been honest with my daughters as they've grown up and they know I'm not telling them about my transgressions because I'm bragging, but because I want them to understand the possible consequences of our actions.

ah so many little secrets that my kids will never know!! maybe being caught by the police peeing in the street and fined was a particular low point!

Well said nightowl and others - what a load of anti-social and unfunny posts, even if they are fiction.

there are too many things that I have done that would shock my children, its even too shocking to post here. the past is in the past lets leave it as that shall we.

Too many to mention I'm afraid including things that I would never want them to know about such as unaccompanied hitchhiking, being late for work every day and getting so drunk I fell downstairs and wet myself. Therefore I will never divulge or admit to any of it for fear of encouraging them or risk being called a hypocrite. I prefer to keep up the pretence of being perfect!

I once hid on someones balcony in a hotel in Spain while trying to avoid a persistent guy. They phoned the reception, who phoned the police as they thought I was a burglar!

I ordered a pizza delivery for next door at 1am in the morning then watched out of the window to see it arrive. Then the following week I ordered a taxi and watched that come in the early hours...I feel really bad about it now...but a little better for confessing it.

I used to be a belly dancer x

I experimented with my mums hair dye and turned my hair bright orange...It would probably fit in with todays society, but back then it looked outrageous!!

I used to be an adult chat line operator

Not much i've always been pretty good lol

If I won't tell my children I certainly won't tell a public thread crazy crazy question really

I managed to get myself barred from, wait for it.. the chippy! I complained that my friend had more chips than me, it was a conspiracy etc and yes I was drunk at the time.

I used to stay at my friends house and she would tell her Mum she has a migraine so her Mum wrote letters to the school saying we were ill. I didn't divulge this with my children until they left school of course

I used to make some extra pocket money by replying to lonely men who used text services! Shhh.

Bit of a goody two shoes.
I skived school ONCE and went to the beach.
Felt awful .. guilty concience.
Not at skiving school, but for lying to my Mam xx

I once sent an ex boyfriend a pigs heart (from the butchers) in the post on Valentines Day...isn't that offal?!

I once got arrested and spent the night in a prison cell for being caught up in a nightclub raid. I was underage at the time!

My dad was a policeman and as i have always been into aimal rights. he asked me not to attend the one he was policing, but i did and he never knew. I never got arrested so all was fine

Underage drinking in pubs, falling asleep drunk in bushes, being sick out of a window, waking up with no memory of anything that happened the night before. All alcohol related I'm afraid, I did like to drink myself in oblivion in my youth!

Once had the need to 'get away from it all' so drove to the airport and jumped on the next plane I could. It was a flight to Berlin.
All I had with me was my handbag and very little cash so I stayed in a little B&B and had to do a runner the next morning!

Hardly anyone knows about that!

went to a nudist beach on holiday in turkey lol was amazing , kids dont know though

When I was really little I stole a book from a shop in our village. I really wanted to read it, but didn't have any money - I planned to read it and return it, but was too scared to go back.

When i was 18 me & my friends went to a party at someones house, the police came & arrested us all as some poor bloke had been kicked to death in a nearby park, we all had to give our shoes in & have our fingerprints done etc, it turned into a great night we got chatted up by doncaster CID & had a right laugh, my dad wasnt amused though wen he caught us trying to sneek back home barefoot at 6.30am & gave us a right dressing down. Nobody at the party had anything to do with the murder & the culprit was caught, thank goodness!!
