are your parents strict/overprotective?

my parents are not strict. they always let us explain. i think whenever they punish us it is just for our welfare so that we'll learn from our mistakes. they seldom scold us. whenever we do something wrong, they talk to us.

yes, but i do appreciate it a lot. i know they're just thinking of what is best for me. and sometimes it's also hard to be over protective, my dad even have the concept that it's impossible to be over protective because we are not together 24/7 and there are a lot of things that are not in their hands.

Maybe yes i would say that because when I am still young they won't let me go out with my friends that easily unless they know who i am with and where i am going and also they always give me curfew whenever i will go outside and if ill be able to stay outside late. But now that i am older enough unless i tell them where to go and who i am with they won't ask anymore questions they just allow me to go and no curfews anymore they just want me to always take care of myself.

I feel the same thing girl. My mom and dad treats me like a high school girl even if i'm the eldest. Sometimes, i dont really like them to treat me like a child but my boyfriend told me that I'm fortunate to have them.I'm thankful

My parents are overprotective and strict with us whe we were young, we are three girls and my parents wont allowed us to go out at night, maybe they will but you will be home before 6 in the afternoon. Thay will not allow us to be with boys even if they are our classmate, we are not allowed to receive a phone call from a boy. I think my parents are being strict with us because they are so overprotective.

There is nothing bad when parents try to protect their children. My parents also try to protect me, no matter that I am 18 and I am not really a child anymore. But it is not overprotecting. It is always better when they give me my own privacy, my free place, that is only for myself. So beeing protectiove and being overprotective are 2 different things and parents should know the difference between them.

The problem I've always had with my parents is that they want me to be independent and self sufficient, but they are not satisfied with the efforts that I amaking to get there. They want me to be independent as long as I do it the exact same way they did.
