Talk about strict parents

Lately, we often hear the words strict parents. Actually, what are the strict parents?

In this article, I will explain a little about strict parents and children's point of view in dealing with my version of strict parents. Check this out !!

The term Strict Parents that we often recognize is parents who have bad behavior, such as engaging in physical or verbal abuse. However, recently education for strict parents has not only occurred in acts of physical violence, but has more dominance in parents who took actions that could poison the child's psychological condition. Why do I say that? Because nowadays, many children tend to have fear and dependence on what they do. In other words, he does something out of fear of his parents, not out of consciousness or the desire of his heart. That is what makes children become depressed and suffer mental illness. As a result, children become more closed to their parents, cannot express their emotions, are not free to tell stories to their parents, and often lie. He only considers parents as people to be feared, people to be obeyed his orders.

In my opinion, as children who are facing strict parents, the strict parents who the children want are not like that. Parents should be able to make a balance about when they should be strict and when they can be permissive (give freedom) to the child. Children also want to get freedom from their parents, they don't want everything they do to always be wrong in the eyes of their parents. I am sure, every child who is facing strict parents will want to tell their own parents what they feel without having to cover it up. They really want to be open with their own parents. They want to express what they like and what they don't like. If they have problems, they can share with their parents, asking for solutions to any problems they face. They also really don't want to lie to their own parents.

From my exploration on social media, I often see children who feel pressured by their parents. He wanted to express what he didn't like, but he couldn't express it, because he was afraid that if he revealed what he didn't like, his parents would be angry. This makes the child cry without the knowledge of his own parents, withstand the pressure from his parents. If he has a problem outside his family environment, it is better for him to hide it, solve his own problem without having to ask his parents for a solution.

I agree if the strict parents's education does not harm children, because it makes children obedient to their parents. However, if it is not balanced with the existence of freedom for children, that will make children stress for a long time and make them mentally ill.
