"Junior, you are not going to that party", Junior's dad said authoritatively. "Dad, pls I have an important role to play in the party beside it is organized by the school" Junior tried begging. "Junior, you are not going there period", Junior's dad shouted at him. Junior just felt hopeless. The question is "Is Strict Parenting Beneficial to the child?". Let's find out together.

The Advantages and Disadvantages Of Strict Parenting

The advantages are:

  • Produce Disciplined Children: There is a clear difference between children who were brought up by strict parents and those with normal parents. The difference is the sense of discipline. Strict parenting is said to produce children who are disciplined at all times. Even if their parents are absent, the children will still behave themselves.

  • Cut Out the Excesses: Strict parenting often succeeds in cutting out excesses that might spoil the child. For instance, gaming and sports are good for child development. Strict parents regulate a certain time for that.

The disadvantages are

  • Instill Bad Fears: Strict parenting can succeed in instilling bad fears in a child. In a situation whereby a school endorses some time for sports for students. A child brought up by parents who don't permit him or her to play might not join sports.
    His or her fears will be that his or her parents will beat or scold him or her. Though the sport is essential for the child's development, the child prefers to be in the box.

  • Inferior Complexity: Since the child can't mingle with other due to strict parenting, he or she will develop a feeling of inferiority complex.

How Will I Feel If I Were Those Children Who Faced Strictness

I might feel a bit bad because some of my freedoms will be restricted. The lack of freedom and total control might make me awkward. These characteristics might show up in my personality while in public. People can easily detect that I have strict parents because of my behavior.

On the other hand, it might feel okay because I will learn some ethics and discipline. Strict parenthood is targeted at the key word "discipline." In general, I might feel awkward and good in one way or another.

How Is My Parent's Behavior Towards Me

As a child, I'll say my parents behavior is in good check. In terms of understanding, feeling, and other aspects, they are good to go.

The Negative Effects Of Emotional Blackmailing

Emotional blackmailing is something that is so painful and life-threatening. Here are some negative effects of emotional blackmailing:

  • Character Assassination: Character assassination is an act whereby a person is already destroyed before his or her appearance.Whenever someone is being emotionally blackmailed, people start viewing the person in a dark light. And when the person appears, no one listens to or talks to him or her. The person has just deserted due to emotional blackmail.

  • Self Stigmatization: When a person discovers that he or she is emotionally blackmailed, he or she will feel down.When he or she sees other people's reactions, he or she will be stigmatized, and suicide might be the next option.

Conclusion

Strict parenting is not advisable; rather, I will prefer democratic parenting. The clear difference between them is the reaction of the children. In strict parenting, the child will have little or no chance of understanding and knowing the parents. But in democratic parenting, there is great opportunity for that, and the child can learn the parent's philosophy.

Hello brother good morning, I enjoyed reading your post as is well detailed and amazing. Parents shouldn't be too harsh on their children because too much of everything is bad.

Is good your parents behavior towards you isn't very bad. Emotional blackmail is a very disastrous thing no one will want to experience.

I wish you good luck in this engagement challenge. Thanks for the invite as well, I almost won last week and I want to try again this week.

When parents do extra strictness with the kids they become more stubborn and they zhide things with them which is not good at all the balance of strictness is very important and they put on eye on them but they also should give the trust and give freedom of choices. Best wishes 😊

Strictness will do no good to children. Rather, it develop them into stubbornness. The best way of parenting is democratic parenting because children will be given opportunity to air their opinion. With that, the parents will understand them and vise versa. Thanks for adding value to my post.

A very nice post
Love it

¡Holaaa amigo!🤗

La historia de Junior lamentablemente es muy común y, me encanta que la resaltes porque, sirve de reflexión para que todos comprendamos que el comportamiento estricto de manera exagerada, puede ocasionar mucho daño sin embargo, si hay un equilibrio, las cosas pueden funcionar mejor.

Te deseo mucho éxito en la dinámica, un fuerte abrazo💚

Hola!
Personalmente Conozco muchos niños con padres estrictos y unos de esos son mis primas, a ellas las tenían encerradas todo el día tanto así que Nisiquiera las dejaron ir a su fiesta de graduación, eso en mi opinión estuvo súper mal ya que era su día especial y el último día que se iba a ver con sus compañeros de la escuela. Éxitos en el concurso.
