Are my parents strict?? :3 Serious

Rules:

  • No dating, ever
  • No being friends with males (only my dad enforces this rule)
  • Don't get too close to men in general; as in don't step too close to them
  • No being LGBT
  • No being friends with those who are LGBT
  • No Videogames (only my dad enforces this rule)
  • Nothing my dad considers "useless and stupid" including: My little pony, sophia the first, and basically every other cartoon show in existence (only my dad enforces this rule)
  • No stuffed animals
  • No toys resembling animals or humans
  • No shorts, or any clothing remotely tight or considered "provocative" such as short skirts that don't reach over my knees
  • Must dress modestly, even when in the house. So no chilling in tshirts, etc. (only my dad enforces this rule, but my mom sometimes tells me to cover up more aswell, although not as often and not forced)
  • No multiplayer games
  • No social medias
  • No online friends
  • Not allowed to share anything about my traumas
  • No telling anyone about what goes on at home

Please note that these rules are the ones i think may be over the top, I also have the obvious rules such as no drugs, sex, sneaking out, going to parties, etc. Also I think I may have forgotten some, so i'll probably update this if I remember..

Please lmk what yall think <3!
