This reminds me of our family trip to Washington D.C. when I was 9.
When my sister and I were kids (and there was no such thing as DVDs!) we used to have two VCRs connected to each other so we could copy VHS’. Jillian and I were aware of the Legal Warnings at the beginning of the tapes, so we understood that what we were doing was illegal. While in D.C. we were planning on visiting the FBI building. My dad freaked us out by telling us that before we could enter they were going to make us take a lie detector test and they were going to ask us if we have ever taken part in any illegal activity, including illegally copying movies, and that it was important that we lie really well so we all didn’t get in trouble and thrown in jail.
My parents were fans of “fun” parenting.
