Do you know what part of the body your 親知らず(おやしらず 「oyashirazu」) are?
The word literally translates as "Without your parents knowing," so my first thought would be the naughty bits, I guess, but they are ACTUALLY your wisdom teeth. The reason they are called such is apparently because long, long ago, when the term was coined, odds were good that by the time your wisdom teeth grew in, your parents were DEAD.
