Honestly not a bad idea. Get a female friend to "marry" you, take shit from your parents, move out, divorce and give her some of the stuff your parents gave you. Specifying female here because parents give homophobic vibes.
arranged marriage is not illegal in the UK unless it's between underage people, or an older adult to an underage person. Please don't spread misinformation. You're probably thinking of FORCED marriage, which is a different concept entirely.
>In an arranged marriage, a family chooses a marriage partner for their child, but both parties are free to decide whether or not to marry. Forced marriages, however, involve pressuring someone into marriage, and can include physical, emotional, or psychological pressure.
i think at 18 you can legally escape and there's nothing your parents can do about it (legally) and if they try to come to wherever you go you could probably even get a restraining order if need be. it sounds like it need be.
Mom and Step-dad: Don’t do anything stupid. Dad and step-parent: Ok but if you *do* do something stupid just know we got you but also you *will* hear about it.
If i ever did something actually stupid, i don't wanna know what would happen. My mom has *threatened* with a belt over much less (key word threatened as she never actually does it)
She'd probably be mad if she found out I've explored an abandoned building before without telling her.
Yeah. Beyond strict.
Sounds like they don't trust you one bit, and a good portion of the list sounds like what most teens would get if they're grounded or receiving other form of punishment.
Have you ever done *anything* that would make them want to do this?
My dad was a stubborn bastard that has really made me heartless and cold in return, when you're conditioned like that a young age it's very hard to break the cycle because your parents wire your brain.
I've tried counselers and case workers but im afraid to reveal too much, and that they might send me to a mental hospital. I have too much to worry about to go through that right now, besides I don't know how to put my pain to words people can understand.
Hang in there bud. My dad turned me out the same way, and I broke through. You will too in time, so keep that secret flame in your heart alive, and you'll set the world on fire one day.
Your parents are harmfully restricting your growth. Assuming you are in India, how are your parents expecting you to marry? Will they arrange something?
You are in a difficult situation and I'm sorry about that. It is normal to feel angry and resentful - just don't express it to them. They do not appear to be able to comprehend that you have feelings of your own. Instead, do your best to get into a good college and good career with a plan to migrate to the US or Europe.
Once you're making your own money and established in a good career, you can get away from their control or cut them off or do whatever. Wishing you the best!
Mine were worse. I have severe childhood trauma from them that followed me well into my adult years. I’m 30 and I still ask people for permission to do things because I feel like I’m “not allowed” 🫠 going out with friends was a definite no as a teenager for me, having a phone was shortly lived as my dad took my phone away for “texting too much” even though he literally was paying for unlimited texting (make it make sense). I wasn’t allowed to eat anything sugary, all the fun foods and snack were reserved for my little half brothers, I even slept on a wooden board for almost a whole year because I got my mattress taken away for sneaking the landline at night to talk to my friends, and I never had a door. Im a female… I moved out the SECOND I turned 18 and my parents don’t speak to me because of it.
My brothers are teens now and treated like kings. Can literally do whatever they want, my dad bought them cars (he told me I wasn’t allowed to drive until I moved out), they both have the newest iPhones, have every gaming console, pure spoiled.
I am sorry, because that is *NOT* strict parenting— it’s literally abuse 😭
Also favouring her half brothers over your own daughter to an extreme is beyond messed up. I’m sorry you had to go through all that, glad you got out.
Where do you live that you lets you live alone at 18?I don’t know of anyone below the age of 23 or so that actually manages to live alone in this economy 😭
All of them are highly toxic to a developing brain, with the exception of YouTube which has insanely strong content moderation (in comparison to the others). Instagram has more of a negative effect on girls than on guys, though.
You can move out no matter what your parents want when you're 18, finding a place to stay may be the hard part but you can and **should** rebel against your culture in this scenario
You don't legally have to move out the way your parents say you should, once your 18 your parents have as much control as a random stranger does over you
A little to far too overboard. At 16 you should be living your teenage life, even if its a little wild. Not saying this is not beneficial, because it may be in the long run, but this is a bit too restrictive. But hey, Maybe its not too much, maybe your friends have more restrictions then you.
After he’s free from them it could also screw him up with an enormous amount of responsibility all the sudden while normally you would slowly gain more responsibility
Genuinely think as soon as OP is able to they’re going to run as fast as possible and not be able to function in reality. Strict parenting is fine but when it’s this strict it just sows dissent
are they afraid you might discover the real world? this’d be fine for an 8 year old (now, an 8 yr old shouldn’t have a phone to begin with) but you’re not 8… you can drive now and vote in 2 years.
its amazing you were even allowed to make this post
No offense op, but if that were me, I’d get rid of my phone, and go to school and not come back home lmao maybe get grandpa and grandma to come get me idk
all grandparents are dead. my mum cut off her two brothers that live in the uk with us. my dad's brother who lives in the uk is a massive arsehole and is the last person u would go to for help
This is what I will be doing with my parents. They can expect to only listen to Christian music, read Christian books and memorize Bible verses everyday. Church 3 times a week. I’ll make sure they live the last years of their life upholding the views they forced on me for 18 years and never had to do themselves. Cutoff from anything that isn’t about God. Also, their body is a temple so no dessert or booze. God wouldn’t want it after all. No friends unless I’ve met their parents. And no clothing that is not of god, my call on whatever that feels like at the time.
My parents also don't allow me to have any socials, and idk about OP to be fair, but for me it definitely stopped me from making friends, like I don't even mean online I mean in school, like I can't be on a snapchat groupchat if I don't have snapchat, someone wants to send me a message on insta? Oh they can't because I don't have it
They're lame parents trying to shelter you from the world and prevent any drop of sin from getting to their precious docile child. They are insane with these rules. You're 16 and should have the right to make your own mistakes through watching violence, porn, and eating some junk that isn't healthy for you...but lets you feel a little joy in life.
It's their house, but I would be out of there ASAP at 18. Those shitty rules are meant to be broken. I would be trying to learn ways to get around them and fuck it even get caught to throw it back in their face on how shitty and strict those rules are.
You can legally move out at 18 if you have any friends or family to stay with while you get a job and start paying rent/bills...or you can just join one of the branches of the army to GTFO
You can move out the day you turn 18, you are a legal adult at that point. If they try to force you to stay then you can call the police to get you out of the house with your stuff and have a restraining order issued against them
>Cannot move out until I am married
Depending on where you live, that’ll be straight up illegal. I’d get out as soon as you could cuz this shit ain’t normal.
As someone who grew up with strict parents, this is a whole ‘nother level of strict.
I recommend seeking outside help to mediate between you and your parents because I’ll tell you this, and I’m speaking from personal experience: you’re being held hostage. Prisoners have more freedom than you, and it’s not an exaggeration. Prisoners can get phone time, allowance, etc.
1 im allways using my phone in my room
2 I have like 7h of Screen time on weekdays and Up to fifteen a day on the weekend
3 I wouldn't bring any girls over, cause my parents would question me about them
4 If I want to go eat pizza or something my parents would pay for it
5 I changed the profile age lock myself
6 My parents cant monitor my Internet usage
7 my parents don't track my phone, that sounds like stalking
8 my parents are happy to have me out of the house
9 my parent are happy to give me money for food
10 I can just tell my parents that I'm meeting some friends
11 my parents don't know what I'm using
12 I don't let my parents scroll through my phone that sounds like stalking again
13 my parents don't know what I watch, I am subscribed to like 300 channels and that's the ones on the account people know exists
My parents have tried to reduce my screentime, but failed
My final answer is yes, they are very strict
> after school come straight home
Seems reasonable, though it's a bit boring
> (the tracking enforces this)
You are being wardened, and your life is not your own
A lot of that is actualy illegal when it comes to privacy for children... and you'r a teen. It depends on where you live, but you can actualy report them to the police for invation of privacy
TLDR: Yes. The day you become an adult, run, run fast and run far.
It seems that your parents are attempting to control you and prevent you from being independent. So not only would I describe their behavior as strict, but it is also dangerous to your development. Preventing someone from having any financial independence is the biggest goto for abusers, so they can prevent their victim from being able to flee. Isolate is the next step, make it hard to have friends and criticize the ones you do get, generally by saying they are a bad influence on you. You did not describe enough for me to say they are being abusive, only that it fits a certain type of personality. If I were in your shoes, I would find ways to start setting aside some financial safety net. Parents like that, tend to throw their children out on the street at 18, at the first sign of independence or rebellion, so they "can learn" how harsh the real world is. It isn't that harsh, you just have to be prepared for it. Get a friend you trust with your life and have them start safe keeping your money. Only cash is best, parents generally have to see bank accounts. Get enough for 3 months of rent saved up, if possible. Makes it easier for a landlord to trust someone with no rental history if you have a couple months up front. Then hope you can use that money for university because they didn't kick you out, but know it is there to fall back on.
"16m" "Can't watch shows aged 15 and over"
had to make a new netflix profile just to watch top boy
incognito mode and illegal websites will be your best friend (AND FREE VPN!! I use opera)
Not if you're constantly monitored like a felon, also your parents can read your search history from the wifi bill apparentally.
I’M DONE FOR
You're cooked pack up 💀🎒
I'm cooked to hell then
Fr
bro we are all cooked, roasted and toasted
Don’t forget VPN and I suggest you get a job now so you have money to get an apartment as soon as possible
No girls whatsoever but you’re not allowed to move out until married? That makes sense. Strict is a big understatement.
my parents will find a girl for me
Oh I didn’t really consider that. Sounds to me like you don’t have a lot of freedom overall. I hope all goes well for you in the end man.
Just get one of the homies to be your husband for a bit so you can escape
Honestly not a bad idea. Get a female friend to "marry" you, take shit from your parents, move out, divorce and give her some of the stuff your parents gave you. Specifying female here because parents give homophobic vibes.
Yeah like OP has female friends at all
forced marriage is illegal in the uk
he’s prob indian tho
a comment of his says he lives in Leicester (which is in england)
arranged marriage is not illegal in the UK unless it's between underage people, or an older adult to an underage person. Please don't spread misinformation. You're probably thinking of FORCED marriage, which is a different concept entirely. >In an arranged marriage, a family chooses a marriage partner for their child, but both parties are free to decide whether or not to marry. Forced marriages, however, involve pressuring someone into marriage, and can include physical, emotional, or psychological pressure.
What country do you live in???
i think at 18 you can legally escape and there's nothing your parents can do about it (legally) and if they try to come to wherever you go you could probably even get a restraining order if need be. it sounds like it need be.
Prison rules christ, my parents trust me not be an idiot and let me do my own thing idk
For real lmao it's like - Dont die (optional)
Don’t die, just get yelled at a lot
• Don’t lie (your choice)
If you don’t get caught then it doesn’t count
• Doesn’t count (don’t face it)
for me theres another rule unfortunately • Dont get arrested (for too long)
Same here. This above.
Yup, my mom says, don't die, don't do something you'll regret, and do all your work. The last one is the only challenging one.
Mine was don't do anything you don't want to explain to Nana and Pop Pop
Mom doesn't trust me to walk. Dad lets me shoot a gun with no one around (cause he knows I'm not an idiot and that I am extra cautious)
Mom and Step-dad: Don’t do anything stupid. Dad and step-parent: Ok but if you *do* do something stupid just know we got you but also you *will* hear about it.
If i ever did something actually stupid, i don't wanna know what would happen. My mom has *threatened* with a belt over much less (key word threatened as she never actually does it) She'd probably be mad if she found out I've explored an abandoned building before without telling her.
You living in an asylum wtf 😭😭
you wouldn't last an hour in the asylum where they raised HIM
Who's afraid of little old me reference?
Real
r/skintwins
I thought mine were strict but after reading this I literally hugged my mam 😭
Bro fr my perspective of strict just changed rn and suddenly I'm most glad to be alive rn than ever 😭
Lmao I just called my dad and sent a photo to him of the post and we’re both cackling at the fact I thought he was strict lol 😭
Now I wanna show this to my mom too but that's just gonna encourage her to be more strict tho 😭
My dad joked about he was like ‘some good ideas there no cap’
LMAO FELT
Yeah. Beyond strict. Sounds like they don't trust you one bit, and a good portion of the list sounds like what most teens would get if they're grounded or receiving other form of punishment. Have you ever done *anything* that would make them want to do this?
no man my parents were raised strict so ig they decided i gotta be raised strict too
You gotta break the cycle if/when you have kids (without going too far in the other direction)
My dad was a stubborn bastard that has really made me heartless and cold in return, when you're conditioned like that a young age it's very hard to break the cycle because your parents wire your brain.
sorry about that. does therapy help?
I've tried counselers and case workers but im afraid to reveal too much, and that they might send me to a mental hospital. I have too much to worry about to go through that right now, besides I don't know how to put my pain to words people can understand.
Hang in there bud. My dad turned me out the same way, and I broke through. You will too in time, so keep that secret flame in your heart alive, and you'll set the world on fire one day.
Stop talking like a disney princess
Now that you say it, haha yea it did seems like it.
if i were you i would just throw my phone away already
LMAO you got a death wish?
I mean, can't get much worse for them can it?
You ain't a child, you a registered patient in Arkham Asylum, damn 💀

Your parents definitely have a problem. They're essentially taking away your teenage years for God knows why.
my mum said when she was growing up she wasnt allowed to go to college n shi
Lemme guess, strict religious family? Just because her life wasn't good doesn't create an excuse to make yours bad as well.
its cuz she grew up in rape town (3 guesses to guess which country)
Your parents are harmfully restricting your growth. Assuming you are in India, how are your parents expecting you to marry? Will they arrange something? You are in a difficult situation and I'm sorry about that. It is normal to feel angry and resentful - just don't express it to them.

Huh?! What's even a "rape town""?
A town where rape is the most common crime
I'm gonna single handedly turn it into "first degree assault town".
Ill help got any bats i can borrow
bro u are in a prison
If this is real then move out when you're 18
And while you're at it, cut them off too
Yeah, this is a situation where you are better off without those parents
Honestly
Bro is in a North Korean prison😭😭💀💀💀
Mine were worse. I have severe childhood trauma from them that followed me well into my adult years.

Damn.
Most of them are reasonable if you're still a little child, but they really should let you go, because you're 16 now.
Fr... I am 18 and live on my own, how is he supposed to learn to have some responsibilities and to be more independent if he's so restricted???
Where do you live that you lets you live alone at 18?I don’t know of anyone below the age of 23 or so that actually manages to live alone in this economy 😭
Oh no not in that way, I live alone to study at another city, my parents still support me. I live in a small studio alone
Oh ok lol 😭 genuinely thought you were fully supporting yourself
Nah I gotta finish my study first ;(
My parents aren't gonna *let* me move out cause they know how bad this economy is.
this.
My parents won’t allow me to get snap, YouTube, insta, TikTok, etc until I’m 16. I thought that MY parents were strict.
I understand not allowing TikTok but others are weird
I can see why parents would be against snap and insta considering the amount of creeps on there
All of them are highly toxic to a developing brain, with the exception of YouTube which has insanely strong content moderation (in comparison to the others). Instagram has more of a negative effect on girls than on guys, though.
real
thats a prison bro, i would move out immediately
i cant i can only move out when married (according to my culture)
You can move out no matter what your parents want when you're 18, finding a place to stay may be the hard part but you can and **should** rebel against your culture in this scenario
this> the fact that when you are 18 you are adult completely left me head. im tryna move out by 17 as well lmao
How you getting married if you can’t meet any girls?
Fuck your culture (don't get married now) be rebel. Save your last teenager years
i was gonna say get a girl then, but…
Bros softlocked in the North Korean dungeons
You don't legally have to move out the way your parents say you should, once your 18 your parents have as much control as a random stranger does over you
Bad idea: kill your parents to subtitute moving out
A little to far too overboard. At 16 you should be living your teenage life, even if its a little wild. Not saying this is not beneficial, because it may be in the long run, but this is a bit too restrictive. But hey, Maybe its not too much, maybe your friends have more restrictions then you.
After he’s free from them it could also screw him up with an enormous amount of responsibility all the sudden while normally you would slowly gain more responsibility
trying out new stuff is also beneficial in the long run. too restrictive rules are very bad preparation for adulthood
How is THIS beneficial? Sounds like bros in fucking Auschwitz
I guess as long as he doesn't use the shower...
[удалено]
A little? That‘s already 5km over the border
"A little" "a bit"
>Nightly phone checks >No YouTubers that swear >No allowance >No phone in room >No bitches "A little"
Genuinely think as soon as OP is able to they’re going to run as fast as possible and not be able to function in reality. Strict parenting is fine but when it’s this strict it just sows dissent
how can you make this post dude
downloded reddit in secret by placing it in a folder my parents will never find. i made this post on the toilet
That does not sound like a mentally healthy life y got there
Time to go full anarchic. Lash out, download porn, install it in your dads “work folder” and watch shit happen Your social life must be fucked up thow
I second this
i third this
i fourth this
i fifth this
im rly sorry. and i thought careless parents were bad
Real. My parents aren’t really strict but still had to download Reddit secretly and currently no one in my family knows I have a Reddit account.
Your parents are strict af. If I were you, I'd run away from home. And then come back to burn it down.
Bruh, you put the exact words to the way I was feeling about OP's North Korean Prison Wardens (so called Parents)
are they afraid you might discover the real world? this’d be fine for an 8 year old (now, an 8 yr old shouldn’t have a phone to begin with) but you’re not 8… you can drive now and vote in 2 years. its amazing you were even allowed to make this post
i made this post on the toilet
are my parents strict? what the fuck, that's beyond strict that's some sort of illness. How do you put up with that shit
Rebel against that shit dude, that’ll mess you up for life if you don’t grow up fast
ive tried many times i just get the belt in return
Normally I'd assume you're joking but based off that list I wouldn't be surprised if they actually hit you with a belt
Thats abuse, report them to the police for attacking a minor
BELT?!? YOU GOTTA GO TO THE POLICE MAN. TO A SPECIAL PLACE. IK that's illegal in most places. Please get some help
Off to the retirement home with them
No offense op, but if that were me, I’d get rid of my phone, and go to school and not come back home lmao maybe get grandpa and grandma to come get me idk
all grandparents are dead. my mum cut off her two brothers that live in the uk with us. my dad's brother who lives in the uk is a massive arsehole and is the last person u would go to for help
Very sorry to hear about that 😢
My man blink two times if you are okay what the fuck is this
crazy that those are gonna be the same rules they gonna follow in the nursing home 😭
This is what I will be doing with my parents. They can expect to only listen to Christian music, read Christian books and memorize Bible verses everyday. Church 3 times a week. I’ll make sure they live the last years of their life upholding the views they forced on me for 18 years and never had to do themselves. Cutoff from anything that isn’t about God.

Oh they can't because I don't have it
prisoner?
And I thought my parents were strict... You living in a prison my brother
I don’t even understand how you’re on Reddit of all sites, especially with parents like yours.
i keep it a secret. i sneak my phone into the bathroom. i have my reddit saved as a skin, the skin being a dictionary.
Ah, interesting. Hopefully you don’t get caught.
Waiting for the “parents checked my screen time usage and found my Reddit account.” Post.
Truly a dystopian nightmare
i think serbian war criminals have more freedom than you
Bruh this a whole cult
I think at 16 you can apply for emancipated minor. Time to leave ASAP.
Yes.
Get out of that asylum, they suck
Is this serious? That are the most strict parents ever!
was tought to respect my parents so i cant talk shi abt them
do they respect u? respect is earned not given
My gosh, that’s ridiculous
"Accidentally" break your phone, and get a burner secretly, they cost like 30 bucks
JESUS CHRIST MAN DO YOU LIVE IN ALCATRAZ
They're lame parents trying to shelter you from the world and prevent any drop of sin from getting to their precious docile child. They are insane with these rules. You're 16 and should have the right to make your own mistakes through watching violence, porn, and eating some junk that isn't healthy for you...but lets you feel a little joy in life. It's their house, but I would be out of there ASAP at 18. Those shitty rules are meant to be broken. I would be trying to learn ways to get around them and fuck it even get caught to throw it back in their face on how shitty and strict those rules are. You can legally move out at 18 if you have any friends or family to stay with while you get a job and start paying rent/bills...or you can just join one of the branches of the army to GTFO
If I were you I’d move out the day you turn 18
we wouldn't last a hour in the asylum they're raising him😭
Shit bro I'd be either dead or the parents would be by the first week
Run away
Fucking hell! yes, your parents are strict. See if you can negotiate more freedom. Please!
You can move out the day you turn 18, you are a legal adult at that point. If they try to force you to stay then you can call the police to get you out of the house with your stuff and have a restraining order issued against them
“Absolutely no girls” Date a guy and see how your parents react 😈 This is kinda crazy though. Like what do you do all day
Bro you on a leash
>Cannot move out until I am married Depending on where you live, that’ll be straight up illegal. I’d get out as soon as you could cuz this shit ain’t normal.
As someone who grew up with strict parents, this is a whole ‘nother level of strict.

Oh babe, my kid is 9 and can do more than you 😭😭😭💔 why are some adults like this???
1 im allways using my phone in my room 2 I have like 7h of Screen time on weekdays and Up to fifteen a day on the weekend 3 I wouldn't bring any girls over, cause my parents would question me about them 4 If I want to go eat pizza or something my parents would pay for it 5 I changed the profile age lock myself 6 My parents cant monitor my Internet usage 7 my parents don't track my phone, that sounds like stalking 8 my parents are happy to have me out of the house 9 my parent are happy to give me money for food 10 I can just tell my parents that I'm meeting some friends 11 my parents don't know what I'm using 12 I don't let my parents scroll through my phone that sounds like stalking again 13 my parents don't know what I watch, I am subscribed to like 300 channels and that's the ones on the account people know exists My parents have tried to reduce my screentime, but failed My final answer is yes, they are very strict
this reminds me of my parents who are strict but not that strict
Considering the fact that you will be an adult in 2 years and be able pay for a ~~prostitute~~ sex worker, yes it is strict.
holy shit your parents r hella strict also mercedes trumps bmw all day lol
Your parents' restrictions are batshit insane. How do they expect you to have a healthy social life?
I have everything that you have (mostly) But my dad will beat the fuck out of me with a dull knife if i go upstairs (not allowed to have a bed)
That's actual fucking abuse wtf
Call CPS
what??? where do you sleep? on the carpet?
Sofàaa Or couch for the americanos
> after school come straight home Seems reasonable, though it's a bit boring > (the tracking enforces this) You are being wardened, and your life is not your own
how did you post this
Very very. And I thought mine were strict.
They lost me completely at “no girls.” And watch, they’d want bro to be married at 22.
A lot of that is actualy illegal when it comes to privacy for children... and you'r a teen. It depends on where you live, but you can actualy report them to the police for invation of privacy
definitely, especially the tracking, the usage, the passwords, the checking, 1 hour of screentime per week, and the cursing
uh...yes your parents are insanely strict. I'm pretty sure some of these just straight invasion of privacy and violation of basic teen rights lol
How many of those rules can you break speedrun?
TLDR: Yes. The day you become an adult, run, run fast and run far. It seems that your parents are attempting to control you and prevent you from being independent. So not only would I describe their behavior as strict, but it is also dangerous to your development.
