As the other person said, it really depends on what people mean by "strict".

My parents were "strict" in that they enforced a bed time. Now I have better than average sleeping habits. So that worked out.

But I've also read about "strict" parents that, like, take doors off their kids rooms, or read the kids private messages, or other nightmares

Yeah, my parents made us leave our cell phones on the kitchen counter so they could read our texts every night, and they installed software on our computers that took screenshots every 5 seconds.

I wonder why I have issues with authority figures and privacy?

You had a cell phone as a child? Musta been nice. I had no door on my bedroom doorframe and wasn't aloud out of the house except under rare circumstances.

Didn't mean I was willing to follow the rules. All that strictness caused me to simply rebel to all authority figures. Seriously, ask me my opinions about police or the government. Lol.

Eh, not as a kid. I got a phone in high school once I got my driver’s license. But yeah, parents are a blast, huh?

How are you feeling about cops and the government these days?

Acab. Fuck the police. Luigi for president. Lol.
