Were/are your parents strict?

Sometimes it annoys me how strict my parents are. But then I realize if I had half as many kids as them, I'd go crazy🤣 Being super strict is probably the only way they can keep track of everyone lol. Still can be Annoying though

Not so much strict but old fashioned values I would say.
No mine was never strict. Hi by the way.

@SW-User my immediate family is white but my overall family is varied. My mom's sister is black and as a result so are all my cousins lol. But I'm eighteen. And yeah you can but it'll take me a while to respond

@AmmieBell actually for me immediate family is mixed racial
I’m white
Wife black
Our daughter is mixed so
My step daughter is black
Yeah, mostly because we lived in the ghetto and they were trying to protect us from all of the bad influences.
When you look back you can see why they was strict. Now i have my kids and i am strict with them for the same reasons

I was a good kid so they didn't have to be but from my mid teens to early 20s I got outta control. By that time it was too late already. I'm back at the right track tho lolz

Not in the sense that they have loads of rules. But if I break one if the rules they DO have the consequences are severe. So in a sense, yes.

My Mom is very strict… and I don't always find it easy.

Then you should set the example for the rest. Show them how to behave and show respect to everyone
AmmieBell · 18-21, F
@nevergiveup I try. Doesn't always work. But also they know the rules as well as I do lol. I'm not really held to a higher standard than they are. We all are responsible for our own actions
When you have kids you will understand what we got through

Mine eventually had no control over me and I was a very wild child.

I suppose it was relative to the times. We had to get permission before going anyplace and they wouldn’t let us go unless either there was a set time we were returning or they had a number where we could be reached (this was long before cell phones). And being grounded, or losing privileges was not out of the question.

@tunechi I haven't but I guess I never really tried lol. I'm pretty content to stay home most often, or just bring my friends over to the house. My parents rubbed off on me and I've always had about the same Taste in friends as them😂 they've only disproved of a few
