WHAT IS IT LIKE TO HAVE STRICT PARENTS?
Strict parents have allowed me to learn how to lie with a straight face so that helps, always hide all evidence of you doing something wrong, know when and where your parents are at all situations, study their movement and even learn how to differentiate foot steps. Always have a believable story with you at all times and know how to make up an act on the spot but don't over sell the story so they don't get to suspicious, keep it short but informative enough to get out of the situation and remember to always have a back up story incase the back up one flops but make them similar and not a completely different story.

when being around my parents I am open. Or try to be. I want them to know about my life as a way to tell them that “I’m doing okay, so leave me alone” but a lot of the times it isn’t like that and they gossip about it. Then they start not to trust me when I tell the the truth and I regret having this relationship with my parents because they never understand me or never let me speak and assume things about me that aren’t true.

Strict parents should know that if they resists everything we want then it's very natural that we are going to do them behind their backs. Because..we are scared of grounded before turning 20. They should trust us so that we can be very open with them instead of yelling at us.

Having parents like mine has not taught me to be better person. It’s taught me to have no social life, become deeply depressed, and lie all of the time. Lying is literally natural for me now.
My parents are extremely controlling.

I was raised by a very very strict parents. A lot of things are not allowed, a lot of things I can’t do and they were controlling me even in choosing a friends for me. They used to choose my clothes for me as well! can you imagine? and when I was a child they used to scare me from going out to street as there is a monster will eat me and when I was bit older there was a crazy guy in our neighborhood they said he will eat me if I go out to street! from that day the fear started growing inside me. The result was extremely polite person, has not leading skills, no true friends, barely speaking to people and afraid of a lot of things like dogs, dark, swimming, talking to strangers, heights, etc. Now I am 20 years old and I am trying to improve myself, I started socializing with people and doing a lot of activities to force my self meet new people but I still have a lot to do to improve myself. My next move will be to go for a psychologist to overcome shyness and fears that I have.

I think no one can answer this better than me.
My dad was/is a control freak .
me and my sis had too many restrictions.
we couldn’t watch TV.
we were not suposed to go out to play.
When we had calls from our friends dad used to hear our conversation over the parallel line
we were suposed to wear what parents will chose for us
we were not permitted to take part in fun activities in school.
I used to get beaten up. In front of guests strangers.
now thirty years have passed . Our family is totally broken..noone cares for anyone… i went to severe depression as a child…. And the past haunts me still. If patents are controlling … happiness is fucked…and the child grows up introvert!
