What’s an illegal thing you used to do on a regular basis without knowing it was illegal to begin with?

Apparently going to and from school alone as a 8 years old.

Riding my bike without a helmet.

Yep. It’s the law in Queensland, Australia. So is driving without a seatbelt.

I studied Art at college and I would regularly walk to class with a stanley knife in my pocket. This is in the UK where carrying a knife on you is a big no-no.

Trespassing. As a kid (think 6, 7) my younger brother and I would go over into our neighbor’s yard (he had a fantastic garden) and play quietly. He never said anything; he was a WWII vet and lived alone. I guess we amused him.

When he died, a new family moved into the house. We continued our ventures into the yard and the family must’ve found out, because we walked over one day to be met with a locked fence. Our days of playtime were over.

Watching porn.

I didn’t realize as a young teen that not only was I breaking the law on my own account when looking at porn underage, but that it also meant my father was breaking the law, even though he didn’t know I as doing it, beause it was on his laptop and and using his Internet connection.
