This one hits a little too close to home...

Also, the word you're looking for might be "abusive" rather than "strict".

Extreme strictness is a form of abuse. These symptoms are particular, though not individually exclusive, to strictness. As long as you "behave" you avoid the material effects of the abuse. Other forms of abuse typically have fewer "rules" that can be used as safeguards.

The word you're looking for . . .

Might be, but almost certainly is not.

It 100% is.

My parents were abusive in this way.

My wife and I are strict. There is a huge difference.
