My parents weren’t strict. They just raised me like Ken said he raises his children. You set clear rules you don’t budge on. I respected my parents so they didn’t have to be strict with me. I was honest with them 99% of the time. Thanks to the way they raised me that 1% i lied i would turn around and tell on myself Bc i felt so guilty 🤣😂 good parents don’t have to be strict. Love y’all’s videos btw! Found you through pewds and i have been watching all your older videos. Love them and love supporting MS born people like myself. Keep up the awesome content.
Yes exactly same thing with me the 1% I can’t do it I’m coming back like one minute after and tell the truth because I fell so bad and I’m 30 years old but I was raised to be honest !!
clear rules you don't budge on were the definition of strict back when I was growing up :) my friends who didn't have strict parents had ones that bent their rules, mine never did, so we considered mine as the strict ones.
My dad was a police officer, and my mom had no boundaries -- so my parents would tear my room apart just if they THOUGHT I had something bad. Just the tiniest bit of suspicion had my room in pieces, which I then was forced to clean up immediately. Never did have anything bad. Wasn't that kind of kid because I was terrified of them. It wasn't respect - it was fear.
ArtPeeGeefan I have a 5 year . I don't believe in spanking or yelling at your child/children. All you have to do when they're that small or smaller and try to get into something they're not supposed to, just get down to their level literally eye to eye, and say no you don't touch this. No need of hand smacking either. My daughter is the best kid in the world and never throws fits. She has never had an attitude with me. By spanking every time they do something wrong or yelling over , you are just scaring them. Imagine being and having someone topple over you yelling and spanking. You want them love you not fear you IMO
@@AshleySmith-mz8zp we need more parents like you. Too many parents in my area think it's okay to lay a hand on a defenseless child. Obedience through fear instead of fostering understanding and guiding them to better paths.
yeah I’ve almost seen every single episode of the series and there was one lady who monitored the music in the TV in the type of clothes they put on and what type of friends they had and knew all the passwords to their Internet apps on their computer, literally almost controlled everything they do in a normal day of life. and I think that the show promoting that is a little spontaneous.😭 and I do feel bad for some of the teens that had to go almost all the way across the world just to be treated a whole different way.
Honestly the dude was pretty cool about having his stuff destroyed like that. All he did was make him buy the stuff and fix it. He didn't even yell or get all that angry. Yeah the spray paint and water was a little childish but that kid was being a prick so I say he got what he deserved
obviously a lot of it is strict, but sure these parents aint like strict christians or abusers but they are pretty bad parents, like if any of these narratives are true then these children are statistically more likely to use opiates later in life.
I know i did. Parents hated firearms in general and made a big fuckin stink over em to the point i wasnt even allowed a nerf gun until i was 13 now im a firearm nut. Wasnt allowed mature games until i hit 16 rebelled and bought myself halo and a few other games
I had a teacher in 6th grade who was a borderline psychopathic bully. He got off on power and bullying students. Ex: If someone gave an off the way answer he'd asked for the person's idenity. He'd then go on to berate that person in class. He did it with me one time and I stood up him (calling him a bully among other things). He then claimed that the high school was different vs elementery school I said "So what you're telling us is every teacher in the high school is a vindictive, callous, and cruel bully like yourself? I find that very difficult to believe." He threatened to have a conference with my parents to which I preceeded to say "Go ahead. By the way I'll be there as well just in case you play the victim card. I also have witnesses here that will back me up." Knowing that he'd lose that battle he backed off. It was a really tense remainder of the year after that.
When I was a teenager I got grounded for getting anything lower than a B an couldn’t take basic level classes so I was always struggling. I wasn’t allowed to hang out with anyone outside of school and everything I did was monitored. I ended up sneaking around quite a bit. I ended up dropping out of school and moved out the day I turned 18. Some parents/guardians are awful people
didn't end up dropping out, but similar situation, so I feel this. Strict parents don't necessarily raise good kids, they raise sneaky ones. But luckily I just finished up a Bs degree and moved halfway across the country so all is well.
Es tut mir leid :( I am so sorry this happened. As a German American, I can confirm many Americans take things to the extreme. And some parents are just abusive or strict, or both. I hope you turned out to be who you are meant to be.
I know someone who was on the first episode of the worlds strictest parents (the original one that was in america). The camera men intentionally give the kids cigarettes and alcohol to get clips of them "acting out" or they'd help them escape, etc. It's real, they aren't forced to do anything. Just if they wanted to they would be helped out by the crew.
@@Nekosierra Yep it's fucked up. But it's 100% on the child to choose to act out. Staff just will help them out by supplying things for them. thats how he "randomly got a cigarette". Staff gave it to him.
The parents in this episode are some of my favourites on the show. They are qualified to help these teens because they work with at risk teens using therapy animals. I also have a lot of respect for them since their second house rule is to take care of the animals before yourself since they can’t care for themselves. They seem like very good people.
I was lucky enough to be raised by an amazing mom, my best friend. She was very clear with boundaries, but our personalities just went so well anyway. I wanted to help her so I could have more time to talk, watch a movie, play, etc. with her. I wanted to make her proud of me because no one lifted me the way she did. She entertained the things I said and did when I was a child. I gave her my respect because I genuinely felt respected and it just developed naturally. Even when I didn't get my way, she taught me how to keep it together and use my head, deal with disappointment, and move on. (For example she would warn me and my siblings before we went to the grocery store that we were only here for *insert grocery list here* and not to ask for anything else, or we are leaving. Instead of tantrums we just helped with picking up the groceries. Every once in a while, if she got enough quarters in change back, she would let us get a gumball or something 😋) (Minus the gumballs) She still does all of these things now but, as an adult, I realize just how unique our relationship was and still is. I can go on and on... I just wanted an excuse to talk about my mom! 😅
Hold onto this love. Cherish it & thank her for an amazing upbringing.. A lot of people never had that motherly touch. It’s Mother Nature to have someone there for you as that figure in your life. Wether it was neglect, abandonment or death. Not everyone gets that. I appreciate your kind words, as they brought a smile to my face. 😊 PS: Sorry for my rant, I just want you to know just truly how lucky you are❤️
My parents were super laid back and I never had any sort of rules growing up. When I was with other kids I would wonder why I never had to be home by a certain time and hoped my parents would care if I didn't come home one day. My sister ran wild but I always craved the structure. My life still fell apart regardless so I guess I should've been living it up more.
That's funny my mum was like that with me, cuz she grew up super strict. I went off the rails at a young age as well. It seems to go in cycles. I'm a strict parent and my kid will be laid back no doubt
I wish my parents wouldn't have let me just run wild. I dropped outta school super early (8th grade) & ended up smoking weed & drinking. I moved out of my house with this guy's family that all they (we) did was party. It messed my life up so much, i started getting in lots of trouble & was always in & out of jail & addicted to banging hardcore drugs. I'm 36 & only just started getting my shit together about 5 years ago. I hate that i was allowed to just run wild & do whatever. It absolutely ruined my life.
It’s funny how strict parents probably think they’re keeping their kid safe but really they’re just making their kid into a professional at sneaking around, lying, and doing all of this shit in privacy
@@SWreacts regardless of how the kid needs to be raised. Strict parents make that decision for you. You can be goody two shoes everywhere all the time. Strict parents will still find a way to justify their strictness. They'll get it in their heads that you're only good because of them.
My strict (and abusive) parent just made me terrified to ever do anything lmao and I’m learning things as an adult now that I should have learned as a teenager :/
Theres a fine line between strict and good parenting, these parents are not strict for wanting there kids to not be smokers and drinkers, as well as vandals. Cant imagine wanting your kids to act right and have a good life beong strict lol. These parents look like awesome parents compared to mine, strict parents feel alot better then a beating that puts you in the hospital then gotta lie so you dont get beat again out of fear...🤔🤦♂️
The show is about troubled teens who are sent to strict families by their parents so the strict family can straighten them out. One thing to note is that the teens aren't always sent to you US, like there's been episodes where the teens have been sent to India, one episode they were sent to Singapore. Also this was the Australian version of the show. There used to be an American version and I think there was a British version at some point
@@XMizzTuraX I just spent 10 minutes on the way home from snowboarding today explaining the Bar👏ba👏dos episode to my partner. He'll just have to watch it.
the reason they send them to the states is that in the U.S. they can just sign over parental control and it was a massive thing in the 80s-90s where kids would essentially be kidnapped and sent to camps for re-education to get rid of their problematic behaviours, and it was completely legal because the people keeping them captive had the same power over them as the parents legally.
Honestly, growing up with strict parents just taught me how to be sneakier if I got caught. I became an impulsive liar, was secretive, and would NOT talk, touch or look at them. It was awful to be constantly monitored, tracked down, etc. I felt naked, I felt watched, I had 0 privacy. Cos family was "supposed" to be open with each other. I never enjoyed any sort of family bonding we had cos just being around them made me feel uneasy. It was an instinct to want to be somewhere else when one or both of them were in the same room. In my case, my parents' way of discipline and their methods of sheltering me only pushed me away from them.
in my personal experience punishing kids to this level just makes them act up more. Anything you say they will do the opposite and the more extreme you are the more extreme they will be. It’s a challenge to them
Came here to say this, I know if my parent's treated me with this much distrust and disrespect I would be way worse than I am today. I never had a reason to rebel so when I started smoking weed, they knew, they didn't like it but they also weren't gonna stop me from making my own choices (I was like 17 and it was maybe once a week at the time). If I was treated like shit because I smoked weed or vaped, I would have done it a lot more since I was immature at the time and might have tried to self-medicate my depression with weed. Because they knew about it they knew they could tell me if it was becoming a problem which gave them piece of mind. Best practice in my book is to teach your kids to be honest with you, if you don't punish them for telling you things, they wont keep (as many) secrets and things that could be bad turn into a discussion of why it might be bad instead of just punishing without explaining. Kids need rational explanations for why they are being punished at the very least, teens need a conversation, not a punishment (in most cases).
What about what they do beforehand? It really doesn't seem like they pay much attention until AFTER their kids do shit instead of trying to avoid it in the first place.
@@LightWeaver_Cyph I understand where you're coming from. My ex fiance was the same. His parents always acted like he was a failure and he never pursued any of his interests and continued on smoking weed and everything, even more so everytime they said anything about it because he felt so bad about himself. But when we become adults, we get to make our own decisions. It isn't easy, but I see him at least trying to make better choices and cut down or quit bad habits. He still lives at home too, and I feel bad because I know it's in his face all the time (the disappointment and guilt). But I also understand what made him that way and I know his mom's a good person and it comes from a place of caring. I'm sure she's tired of dealing with shit, but I also know she's enabled it. I wish I could talk to her. I always liked her but I'm not an open person so we never breached that bridge. I'm glad you weren't raised to feel that way and found success.
Hell, I was too scared to attempt anything with my folks and they were still strict AF. I was 18, going to college FT, had a PT job at the college, PT job at Super D and tutored and I still didn't have a curfew because I wasn't allowed to do anything. I left at 19. Love my folks but they could have loosened the reigns a little!
The premise of this show is literally just bad parents giving their kids to different bad parents, so they can then be returned to their original bad parents.
Nah not all of the “strict” parents on this show were bad.And the teenagers behavior in this clip is disgusting they were lucky all they had to do was help around the house and fix their own mess. Jail was a real option.
@@Shewas-kathybates i do agree this episode wasn't to bad Teens did do that to themselves and were lucky lol But the few episodes i watched i honestly hated how stuff was handled because usually those are troubled traumatized kids and it was quite often really close to that line of mental or even physical abuse(there is a german version too which was uh.. yeah.. from what i remember horrible lol)
@@Shewas-kathybates I mean, maybe not every single one of them, but when I think about the American idea of a "strict parent", I typically think of someone with an inflated ego who abuses power dynamics in order to make themselves feel important.
Being aggressive and using punishment to “teach your kids a lesson” never works. Your kids are not gonna respect you, they are either gonna fear you, hate you or both. Of course there should be consequences for breaking rules, but you can do that by sending them to their room. Teach them _why_ what they did was wrong. Sit down and talk to them. Kids aren’t stupid, you can actually talk to them like they’re people. I know, crazy right? Also, if you end up in a fight, it’s ok to send them off to cool off, but it’s critical that you get on good terms again afterwards. Then they will actually want to keep the rules, and they will respect you as a parent, because you respect them as kids. Your kids are the only people you should love absolutely unconditionally.
I mean, it works to show them consequences, but I don’t think the kid will do what you taught for the right reason if the motivation is only fear. If the kids are conditioned since birth like how the OP described, I doubt that they’d suddenly do a 180 in personality unless if someone else influenced em. I feel like the kids that only listen to harsher punishments weren’t raised the way the OP described to begin with.
Growing up my parents always had the principle that if we did something wrong we'd have something confiscated for a period of time. But if we did something wrong, and a problem I caused happened, I always knew i could go to them for help, and they'd help. Like if i was doing something bad online and something negative happened- they'd help me get out of the situation. It meant that i felt i could tell my parents stuff, though obviously not everything. I think it helped that I knew what they were like growing up and they didn't treat me and my brother like we were supposed to mindlessly follow orders and not speak unless spoken to like some families. Our opinions were acknowledged which yes, caused frictions and arguments, but also meant that I respected my parents and their rules because I actually understood them- because they took the time to tell me why.
It would be Interesting to see how this cycle began. The teens appear deserving but the parents are likely responsible for their shitty attitudes and the parents set example with their destructive “punishment”. Everyone escalates from what the other party did, seems a dangerous pattern.
Not always. My best friend is a model child. Her brother is a skinhead the family doesn't even talk to since he's literally punched everyone in the family. Some kids are just shit no matter how good the parents are. And some kids are good no matter how shit the parents are. It goes both ways.
@@spiwolf6998 Nah, it just just you that observe them at surface level, model children are sociopaths, this family your are talking about has lots of dirty secrets they would not want you to know about.
this show is definitely worth going through the full hour episodes if you have time. they take kids from england and australia and send them to all different countries, not just america. it’s interesting to see them adapt to different cultures too!
I was mates with one of the guys from Australia that got sent to New York if I'm remembering correctly, but he told a lot of people it's all a set up they don't even actually stay at the other families house, the show producers give them a hotel room to stay in and spending money to go out shopping while they are there like a holiday, it's all scripted content
@@blahblahblah4544 you can choose not to believe it if you want, the producers were driving him around to do graffiti for footage on the show before he left for the US which made it onto the show they filmed him vandalizing a train
Clear boundaries are what ALL children need. So, good on you, Ken and Mary, for providing them to your children, they will...eventually, be very grateful to you. Loved the video thanks Ken and Dane.
One of my friends was on it when she was a teen, they stage alot of the teens doing bad stuff at their homes. Like they made her sneak out the window when she could've just left to make it look worse
I mean, the “strict parents” destroyed their bags. The teens retaliate by vandalising their property. Then the guy takes it to the next lever, and then expects that to magically gain their respect? I’ve never seen this type of parenting work. Working out a mutual respect and communicating
@@LadySmartcat there was no need to destroy the bags. Consequences are needed obviously but destroying their personal belongings is not the way to go, as we see it literally encourages them to retaliate by doing the same
"Dad" was more stupid than strict, imo. You can't do unto the child as the child did unto you. That's immature and doesn't change one thing with the kid.
i was thinking that too, especially when he was waking the kid up with water and laughing about it. even if the kids hate it, he's still giving off the feeling that he's not taking it seriously. kids don't have respect for that kind of thing.
Those aren’t their kids. These are at “risk kids” that the show places with strict parents to “straighten” them out. I saw one episode where it worked but it probably depends on in which ways they’re strict. The family where it worked was focused a lot on self respect and I think the punishments were reasonable things like extra chores. I don’t think anyone got spray painted in that episode.
As retentive and authoritarian as my mother was growing up - due to mental illnesses later identified - and the severe neglect and everything I dealt with from my donor who has munchausen syndrome by proxy, I have never ONCE acted like this. This is some next-level acting out lol. Maybe it was far of retribution or maybe it's because I'm not much of a risk taker, but I lean towards #2 haha. Not that I agree with either party - kids or parents - at all here. Parents need to stop blaming the kids so much when they don't seem all that attentive until they decide to go through their shit, and the kids just have ZERO boundaries. They all need to do some serious work.
I think there’s three modes of parenting: weak, assertive and aggressive. Parents tend to be either weak and never care at all, or aggressive and they are authoritarians not parents, I think the middle ground of assertive is best really. I have strict parents. They had rules, but they sat me down and explained why each rule exists and what the purpose was, made sure I understand, and that’s that. I also do not understand the idea of “if parents have rules teens will sneak away or lie”. How can you blame lying on the parents? Teens aren’t babies they choose of their own free will to do things. Halving a lot of friends with strict parents as well, none of us really ever snuck out. We understand the rules and just operated perfectly fine within them. But I can understand when a kid is mad because their parents have unreasonable rules. That’s why I think assertive parenting with some attached reason and explanation is important. Although let’s not lie, teens can be pieces of shyte so… sometimes strictness is perfectly fine.
Yes! In my family related classes they called it permissive, authoritative and authoritarians types! Authoritative is the best! Basically it balances needs and wants. Authoritarian only forces. Permissive is high rewards low boundaries.
Yeah, my parents were strict and I didn't get to do a lot of things, but also they explained how the world is and that they have to be strict so I survive and make wise choices, and then I just didn't have that desire to do bad things, I wasn't tempted to sneak out or do bad things, and I thought my peers who did were foolish. Even after turning 18 I wasn't all stoked to start drinking and partying, I already heard the stories of my parents partying as teens and in their early 20s and it didn't sound like fun, it sounded stressful, all they had to do was tel me what they went through when they were my age and it turned me off of making those foolish adolescent choices.
@@debfox came here looking for this! Authoritative=you can't go out until your room is clean, no compromises. Authoritarians=YOU CAN NEVER LEAVE RAA YOU ARE A MAGGOT
i took multiple classes for stuff similar to this, the four parenting styles you are thinking of are; - Authoritative: This parenting style has been consistently linked to most positive outcomes and therefore is seen as the most socially valued. There is a balance between demand and being warm/accepting. With clear rules and still values independence. Kids with parents like this are more likely to be better at socializing and less mental illness. - Authoritarian (or Disciplinarian): These parents have high expectations and expect blind obedience. This creates high levels of parental control and low levels of parental responsiveness towards the child. They only allow one-way communication through strict rules and orders. Any attempts to reason with them are seen as backtalk. Kids with this type of parenting will result in mental illness, more inclined to get into drugs, and have low social skills. - Permissive (or Indulgent): Permissive parents set very few rules and boundaries and they are reluctant to enforce rules. This creates a low demanding, high responsiveness household. Kids with these types of parents tend to throw more temper tantrums, posses egocentric tendencies, and encounter more problems in relationships/social interactions. - Neglectful (or Uninvolved): Neglectful parents do not set firm boundaries or high standards. They are indifferent to their children’s needs and uninvolved in their lives. These uninvolved parents may have mental issues themselves such as depression, physical abuse, or child neglect when they were kids. Children of neglectful parents aren't able to self regulate emotions, are prone to addictions, and suicidal behavior. and writing/reading all this makes you realize just how much all types of parents affects you, that everyone literally has a reason for the way they act/see the world. genetics/environment
You see how much vandalism those teens decided to partake in? Rock through a window, spray paint everywhere... All they had to do was clean up their mess. When I was eight, I wrote one word on a fence in CHALK and my parents made me scrub and paint the entire fence so it looked brand new. Two inches of an easily removable substance caused three afternoons of unnecessary work when some soap, water, and apology would've easily sufficed as punishment. Learn what strict is lol.
@@risksandhope1849 That part was immature at best; something a teenager or twenty-something would do, not a strict adult. From what we've seen here, these people are not strict. Overall, they seem to be doing a pretty good job holding these kids to personal responsibility and the fact that actions have consequences. Small bouts of immature actions are the exact antithesis of "strict" especially when said actions are in line with how a typical frat boy or "prankster" type would react to something.
I think it’s pathetic to sink to their kids’ level and start spraypainting their skin or something. Being a strict yet loving parent is a completely different to humiliation, for example, and not necessarily even knowing how to handle their own emotions/actions etc. There are consequenses when someone acts and does stupid things, but it should be handled like adults & not like uneducated, vengeful idiots.
Well if you watched the full show, they would have told the things you questioned. The kids are from all over, mostly America, UK, Aus. They get sent around the world to a strict family. These kids are BAAD but it's only because of their real parents failing to be a parent and talking with their children. These kids only do drugs and all that because they want attention from parents. The strict family either doesn't care and breaks the kid down or reach a level of understanding but thats only when the kid was living there.
Yessssss. I've been binge watching these glad someone recommended. These parents crack me up. The kids almost always break by the end tho and some even keep in contact with their "strict parents" overseas
This one brought some childhood memories back :D Anyways, I think that every generation has their general parenting style: our grandparents were strict but there was an honor to gain from hard work. Our parents wanted to be less strict but pranks got too wild and they had to be strict to the extent they came to rule with fear and then came the social media which has become a parent of itself.
The more I watch Dane, I’m becoming more of a fan. He’s funny asf and it seems like he would be an awesome friend to hang out with. He’s like the kind of guy who can always make you laugh. with serious topics he always has something insightful to say, but usually keeps it lighthearted, which I appreciate a lot! Keep it real Dane and Ken p.s. Ken I’ve been watching your videos for almost 8 years, I love to see the growth and evolution of the channel! Proud of you!
I would say that I grew up with a strict father, but mostly it was abusive. I don't mean he yelled at me, but cold cocked me in the face at 13, threw a weight on my brother in his sleep at 16, cracked his skull at 20, burned me with a cigarette at 7... And that list goes on. I'll take a ripped up purse any day over the shit we went through.
I’m sorry your father was abusive but yea in my experience this I don’t understand how this parent is even remotely strict. I mean idiot parenting tactics aside, this is nothing.
Flushing stuff down the toilet is just the parent power move. When I was a teen my parents went through my room and found an ounce of weed that a friend got me from a weed clinic. They called me into their room and made me dump it in the toilet and flush it. YEARS LATER she told me they ended up taking a bunch of the weed before they made me flush it and said it was really good.. I guess just add insult to injury huh?
@@CutzMcOnions I’m pretty sure they really did take some. My parents smoke weed, I didn’t know at the time but they had very limited access and were scared about getting a medical card. So they more than likely did take some for free instead of buying it from their sketchy dealers for like $60 1/8th
could be to add insult to injury. but could be that they didn't want you doing weed as a youngster. it's not the best for teens to be doing (brains not fully developed) on top of the fact they likely didn't want you smoking it because youre young and still effects your lungs. like an adult that drinks that doesn't want their teen to drink. your body isn't ready for this stuff and it can effect your brain long term.
Man, I feel like this is just bad parenting to the max. Like, okay, your kid is drinking or smoking. Find out why, talk to them about the dangers, and make sure they know that they can go to you. For example if a kid is drinking behind their parent's back, they already feel like they can't talk to them. You don't have to be your kids' 'friend' but you definately need to show them that you respect them and aren't going to get angry when they mess up.
kid: drinks and smoke abusive parents: shows violence with a hammer good parents: talks to them about the risks, find out why they need to self medicate, have them go to a support group or kid version of AA kid: breaks a shed and spray paints it abusive parents: acts like a ten year old and sprays them back good parents: helps teach the kid how to rebuild and repair the the shed, find out why they broke it, get them something they can break for fun if they need to vent anger like legos, anger management techniques if needed There were so many other ways to react to their actions and kids always follow by example. If their violence is met with more violence the cycle will never end. If they are seeking attention and the parent just responds with anger, the parent will never get to the true root of why the kid felt the need to act out or self medicate. These kids don't need strict parents, they need attentive and supportive parents.
I was a CO for years, and not even I'm this strict with my kid. These folks are nuts haha. Parents wonder why their kids resent them in their older years these days. You forced them to exist on this plane, you best be better to them lol.
There is a UK version,, and Australian, Austrian, and German version. And I have seen a lot of UK teens seemingly turned around for the better because of the show. Honestly, although it is a "reality" tv show, which means there is a lot of twisting of reality behind the scenes, there is genuine affection, care and tenderness shown by the temp parents, and the kids when they say sorry to their parents, write them a letter, read a letter from mom. Etc. And so I say, this is one of my favorite shows -- partly because I think it adds value to society. It is not just trash ...although there are bound to be some lies fed to us. ;) The kids are sent everywhere: Barbados, India, America, Canada, Kenya, Jamaica, Ghana.....
My parents were so strict, the only way I was able to do anything I wanted to do was to just do it and hope for forgiveness. I was 18 when I started playing GTAV behind thier backs because they didn't let me ever play it
My parents were strictly neglectful. Kinda grateful after even seeing the first 3 minutes of this video. I could’ve stored a whole distillery under my bed and they wouldn’t have gotten involved lol. Thankfully, I was just into comic books and video games. Such a rebel
As a Australian, I can say that we say words weird: cigarettes are ‘ciggies’, barbecue is called the ‘barbie’, ‘aggro’ means aggressive, ‘arvo’ is afternoon, ‘bottle-o’ is the liquor store. We say all kinds of weird things and the most common thing is mate. If you’re from Australia, you don’t call people ‘friends’, you call them mates. Even instinctively. I instinctively use arvo, barbie and mate
My parents are very strict. I'm 17 and not allowed to watch R rated movies, not allowed to listen to non-Christian music, absolutely no swearing allowed, and not allowed to have social media (even though I've always been a behaved child). Obviously, I do all those things lol, but I have to hide it
Your parents are foolish and misguided control freaks, but when you have your own household and eventually family you'll be able to figure out what actually is and isn't acceptable. I hope you can get out at 18.
Being overly strict often breaks the spirit of your children, or creates more resentful more rebellious kids who won't be able to function well in society...this is an abusive family dynamic or its staged
My mom was a strict helicopter parent and that caused me to rebel like CRAZY. The first time I snuck out, I was 14- and got into a major car accident where we nearly lost our lives. Completely changed the course of my life. I was life flighted to the hospital and out of school my entire freshman year. The driver of the car I was in was internally decapitated and in a coma for 41 days. I understand my Mom’s fears so much more now. It’s really all I can think about watching these shows.
As a kid growing up in Mississippi , the wildest show to ever see as a 5 year old was Jerry Springer. I'd love to see you guys react to some of the highlights.
In the original one, it was British kids and they go to anywhere in the world! India, Barbados, South Africa, and one episode they just went to Ireland haha. Bet those kids were hoping for some sunny, hot beachy place and instead just hopped over to us 😂
Or maybe the kids just feel like there's nothing they can do to be accepted by their parents... So might as well just do whatever they want anyway. The kids are being actually abused - spray painting your kids is abuse. The kids are acting out .. because they're being abused. They're abusing, because they've been abused.
I literally just checked with police here in Canada.... they said this is worth charging the parents over. So I think they'd both be I'm trouble, but the parents would be more at fault, because you can't just spray paint or blast a kid in the face with a fire extinguisher
I like how the show usually sends these annoying bad kids to other countries with needlessly strict and borderline abusive parents and then the clips only show the least worrying moments from those families. There's this one episode where they send teens to an African country. The parents took the children to the beach, where the girl put on a swimsuit, a very appropriate swim suit. The mother of the family went over to her and told her she's gonna get raped looking like that, and to cover her stomach, which she did. THEN the mother thought that wasn't enough and decided to scare the teen girl into thinking she's never safe in that country because any man that looks at her will try to rape her. The parents are awful in this show. On the OTHER side of the spectrum was a pair of American gay dads who didn't force the teens to take out any piercings or cut their hair, or anything like that. They were very respectful and fun guys who instead of verbally abusing the teens made them feel safe and loved. THAT is good parenting. There was also a Scandinavian couple that was acceptable as well, and that's it. All the rest are terrible. It should be considered abuse to put your kid on this show.
“World’s Strictest Parents” my ass. These people have never met my parents. 😂 The guy in this clip seems chill AF. If I would have done the stuff those kids did, my parents would have beaten me within an inch of my life and thrown me in jail, not take me to the hardware store to get cleaning supplies.
He was laughing and smiling while spray painting them and throwing water on them. My dad never did that. I did something wrong? Into his room where he was waiting with a belt. No laughs. No smiles.
I literally wasn’t because I actually behaved. I mean, I agree that my parents were too strict, but they never ACTUALLY beat me because I knew not to do stupid shit like this. I saw another commenter remark that parenting like I experienced resulted in fear, not respect, and I don’t think that’s wrong - I definitely had a healthy fear of my mom, especially - but at least I grew up understanding that part of respectfully existing in a society means not trashing things that don’t belong to you or acting like a general asshole. I’m trying to do better for my own kids - my parents yell at me all the time for not being “strict enough” with them, but I just treat them like human beings who I love and who sometimes mess up and have bad days. I point that out because I’m not ENDORSING the way my parents raised me, by any means, but I always knew that my parents loved me and would do whatever they could for me. They just expected me to be a decent kid.
I thought my parents were strict until I saw this show and realized, oh my parents just set boundaries and rules and stick with them, While my friends had the "fun parents" that let them do whatever they want growing up
I had a strict mom when I was little, and she's now relaxed since I'm an adult now. But just seeing the kids smoking and drinking and sneaking it around and screwing up property, the dad gave a really loose punishment.
I watch that show when I'm cooking/doing dishes sometimes. 😂 It was fun watching someone else's opinions on the show. (Also the "Stella" portion was from those teens spraypainting the "strict" family's pet sheep.) Basically, problematic teens (from USA, UK, etc) get shipped off to some other country with a strict family for a couple weeks and they see what their life could be like to see how easy they actually have it back at home. The strict families provide structure and the teens (eventually) respond well to it. There is also a "where are they now" episode and it brings the teens back to tell you if they continued to behave with their regular families.
Child and teens need structure, rules and boundaries. But..... they also deserve privacy and some freedom to make mistakes and learn from them. To learn problem solving skills, they need, to become an independent adults. Respect should go both ways and it is also something that needs to be earned.
a child having freedom and privacy is earned. a child who constantly lies and steals and vandalizes has no right to freedom if they are already abusing what little trust there already is in them. they can earn that trust back by stopping the lying and sneaking around. my parents trusted me 100 percent when I was growing up because I never gave them anything to doubt me. I never lied. I never snuck around. I always told them where I was and who I was with. meanwhile two former friends of mine constantly lied and snuck around their parents while their parents gave them more freedom than me.... and then had the gall to complain why the 1% of time they actually told the truth their parents never believed them. they couldn't. you lie 99% of the time, there's no reason for anyone to trust you. simple shit. the only time a parent is over strict is when that child does everything right and they still try coming down on the kid and treating the kid like a prisoner. which 99% of these situations aren't that.
@@fireemberess You're very lucky and stupid at the same time. You blame the children, when there are tons of parents with messed up heads who won't trust their children no matter what. This is when children learn they're being punished for honesty, they start to lie more and more even about small things. It's like with some people who always think their partners are cheating, it gets more and more obsessive so you have to hide even an innocent chat with your coworker because it will feed their insecurity. And they will explode.
y mother once destroyed my shop project because she didn’t know what it was and assumed it was something bad. I didn’t retaliate, I blamed myself for bringing it home. Bad parenting can prepare you for customer service, always think ahead and prepare for Karen behaviour
That dog wasn't full grown by the way. It's a Great Pyrenees. I have one. These dogs were bred to guard and protect livestock against wolves bears and other large predators. It takes a special human to deal with them as a pet as opposed to or working livestock guardian dog. People think they're stubborn and that's not the case. They just have genetics that tell them to make their own decisions and that typically their decisions are the right decisions. Therefore, they don't listen! These are amazing dogs but so many are gotten rid of in the first two to five years because people expect them to behave as other dogs behave. These dogs shed year round and twice a year they do what's called blowing their coat. It doesn't just fall out it more or less flies out. They bark incessantly and it's typically at night because this is an nocturnal breed bread to guard flocks and herds at night when the farmer is asleep. They also guard resources like food and toys. Humans mistake this for aggression when they are just doing what their genetics tell them to do. Back in the day the farmer would come out drop off enough food and water for them for a few days sometimes up to 2 weeks, so these dogs guard their resources because they're genetics tell them that they need to make these resources last. Not eating is another issue I hear a lot of owners crabbing about. They should never be cut short or shaved because they're double coat cools them in the summer as much as it warms them in the winter. They literally behave as if they are deaf but they can hear the crinkle of a cellophane chip bag through three walls with the stereo cranked up. They are loving sweet dogs but they are equally fierce. If they don't have livestock to guard they will guard whatever they can find. Children cats other dogs and they do have a propensity to scrap with other dogs because their job is to guard against predators so they will often see another dog as a predator. What I'm saying here is folks need to stop getting these dogs because they're super cute fluffy little white puff balls because by the time they grow into the big white fluffy nightmare they become they are gotten rid of simply for being true to what their genetics tell them to be. If someone is interested in getting one of these dogs I suggest a minimum of two to three years hard research and for crying out loud get one from a rescue, don't purchase a puppy!
This is why active parenting is a good thing. My mother raised all 4 of us girls with rules and boundaries. We are now all productiive adults. I love watching some parents struggle after they have created little entitled monsters. They think "oh it's ok, they are little, we can let them run wild"...... when the child is then 13, that becomes a nightmare because the children do not have any respect for others or the law, and value nothing. The most rewarding moments is when they start saying please and thank you without being told, behave when you go shopping, and respect others around them, including other children and adults they do not know well. I do not want my child to be a disrespectful little asshole, that's why there are rules that are enforced. I am not your little friend, I am your babysitter/parent/responsible adult. If I fail in instilling values and boundaries, it is setting the child up for misery and failure later. Being a good parent sometimes means tough love. I see that now.
Watching Ken and Buff react to the most bizarre videos are the best to do when I caught the flu and just lies all miserably on the bed all day. Keep it up ~
The literal abuse might be an indicator, please never have kids, especially if u cannot grasp that kids grow up to be like this due to neglect, abuse and trauma

A little known fact about Australia, don't come here if your a smoker. In Australia, a packet of 20 cigarettes will cost you about $30AUD. And when you arrive, there's no place to have one until you go through customs and get out the front of the airport. There, you can have a smoke in a small designated smoking area where you can have one among 30+ people who also have been hanging for a smoke.
Yes! My parents aren't strict, they raised me right to be a law abiding citizen with a love for my country. Now if you ask my sister she'd say they were strict. Different attitudes. I'm so happy my parents raised me the way they did
@@SangriaDracul if teaching your kids to be responsible for their actions then I guess the definition of bullying has changed. Cant imagine being so entitled that good parenting isnbulkying lmao. True bullying would be destroying everything the kid owns then dropping them off at a foster home lol, or maybe the ranch.

My parents weren’t strict. They just raised me like Ken said he raises his children. You set clear rules you don’t budge on. I respected my parents so they didn’t have to be strict with me. I was honest with them 99% of the time. Thanks to the way they raised me that 1% i lied i would turn around and tell on myself Bc i felt so guilty 🤣😂 good parents don’t have to be strict.

Yes exactly same thing with me the 1% I can’t do it I’m coming back like one minute after and tell the truth because I fell so bad and I’m 30 years old but I was raised to be honest !!
Maybe Not Strick But Good Clear Boundaries
Same!
Every child is different and requires different parenting styles. Not abuse but different styles.
clear rules you don't budge on were the definition of strict back when I was growing up :) my friends who didn't have strict parents had ones that bent their rules, mine never did, so we considered mine as the strict ones.
My dad was a police officer, and my mom had no boundaries -- so my parents would tear my room apart just if they THOUGHT I had something bad. Just the tiniest bit of suspicion had my room in pieces, which I then was forced to clean up immediately.
Never did have anything bad. Wasn't that kind of kid because I was terrified of them. It wasn't respect - it was fear.
ArtPeeGeefan I have a 5 year . I don't believe in spanking or yelling at your child/children. All you have to do when they're that small or smaller and try to get into something they're not supposed to, just get down to their level literally eye to eye, and say no you don't touch this. No need of hand smacking either. My daughter is the best kid in the world and never throws fits. She has never had an attitude with me.
By spanking every time they do something wrong or yelling over , you are just scaring them. Imagine being and having someone topple over you yelling and spanking. You want them love you not fear you IMO
I am also sorry you went through this btw
@@AshleySmith-mz8zp we need more parents like you. Too many parents in my area think it's okay to lay a hand on a defenseless child. Obedience through fear instead of fostering understanding and guiding them to better paths.
parents like that wonder why their kids grow up and move out and never come visit them. x__ x sorry you had to experience the 'terror' parenting style
this is how my parents were. it was so hard and traumatizing; i hope you’re doing better now
I do like this show but sometimes the parents aren’t just strict, they’re psychopaths. These ones aren’t too bad
exactly. these parents aren't even strict. it's called learning respect tbh
yeah I’ve almost seen every single episode of the series and there was one lady who monitored the music in the TV in the type of clothes they put on and what type of friends they had and knew all the passwords to their Internet apps on their computer, literally almost controlled everything they do in a normal day of life. and I think that the show promoting that is a little spontaneous.😭 and I do feel bad for some of the teens that had to go almost all the way across the world just to be treated a whole different way.
Honestly the dude was pretty cool about having his stuff destroyed like that. All he did was make him buy the stuff and fix it. He didn't even yell or get all that angry. Yeah the spray paint and water was a little childish but that kid was being a prick so I say he got what he deserved
obviously a lot of it is strict, but sure these parents aint like strict christians or abusers but they are pretty bad parents, like if any of these narratives are true then these children are statistically more likely to use opiates later in life.
These parents are actually qualified to help the kids in the show since they work with at risk teens
I feel like these parents don’t understand that being too strict can actually CAUSE kids to rebel
I know i did. Parents hated firearms in general and made a big fuckin stink over em to the point i wasnt even allowed a nerf gun until i was 13 now im a firearm nut. Wasnt allowed mature games until i hit 16 rebelled and bought myself halo and a few other games
These dumb kids are almost adults, they know what they are doing is wrong.
it's been proven: tell a kid not to do something, they're more likely to do it because it's confliction!
I was allowed to play grand theft auto and never robbed or hurt people
I had a teacher in 6th grade who was a borderline psychopathic bully. He got off on power and bullying students. Ex: If someone gave an off the way answer he'd asked for the person's idenity. He'd then go on to berate that person in class. He did it with me one time and I stood up him (calling him a bully among other things). He then claimed that the high school was different vs elementery school I said "So what you're telling us is every teacher in the high school is a vindictive, callous, and cruel bully like yourself? I find that very difficult to believe." He threatened to have a conference with my parents to which I preceeded to say "Go ahead. By the way I'll be there as well just in case you play the victim card. I also have witnesses here that will back me up." Knowing that he'd lose that battle he backed off. It was a really tense remainder of the year after that.
Watching Ken fall deeper into the aussie lore makes me proud to be Australian
Aussie lore, amazing
When I was a teenager I got grounded for getting anything lower than a B an couldn’t take basic level classes so I was always struggling. I wasn’t allowed to hang out with anyone outside of school and everything I did was monitored. I ended up sneaking around quite a bit. I ended up dropping out of school and moved out the day I turned 18. Some parents/guardians are awful people
didn't end up dropping out, but similar situation, so I feel this. Strict parents don't necessarily raise good kids, they raise sneaky ones. But luckily I just finished up a Bs degree and moved halfway across the country so all is well.
My parents were the same way 🥺 I snuck out a lot!
@@edonyl you deserve to stop being edgy on the internet and actually be productive.
How are you doing now?
Es tut mir leid :( I am so sorry this happened. As a German American, I can confirm many Americans take things to the extreme. And some parents are just abusive or strict, or both. I hope you turned out to be who you are meant to be.
I know someone who was on the first episode of the worlds strictest parents (the original one that was in america). The camera men intentionally give the kids cigarettes and alcohol to get clips of them "acting out" or they'd help them escape, etc. It's real, they aren't forced to do anything. Just if they wanted to they would be helped out by the crew.
Wtf!?
They did that to a client at a local recovery agency for intervention on TLC years ago too. They have a lot of problems with my 600 lb. life…
@@Nekosierra Yep it's fucked up. But it's 100% on the child to choose to act out. Staff just will help them out by supplying things for them. thats how he "randomly got a cigarette". Staff gave it to him.

The parents in this episode are some of my favourites on the show. They are qualified to help these teens because they work with at risk teens using therapy animals. I also have a lot of respect for them since their second house rule is to take care of the animals before yourself since they can’t care for themselves. They seem like very good people.
Yea but some people care more for animals than people
I was lucky enough to be raised by an amazing mom, my best friend.
She was very clear with boundaries, but our personalities just went so well anyway. I wanted to help her so I could have more time to talk, watch a movie, play, etc. with her.
I wanted to make her proud of me because no one lifted me the way she did.
She entertained the things I said and did when I was a child.
I gave her my respect because I genuinely felt respected and it just developed naturally. Even when I didn't get my way, she taught me how to keep it together and use my head, deal with disappointment, and move on.
(For example she would warn me and my siblings before we went to the grocery store that we were only here for *insert grocery list here* and not to ask for anything else, or we are leaving. Instead of tantrums we just helped with picking up the groceries. Every once in a while, if she got enough quarters in change back, she would let us get a gumball or something 😋)
(Minus the gumballs) She still does all of these things now but, as an adult, I realize just how unique our relationship was and still is.
I can go on and on... I just wanted an excuse to talk about my mom! 😅
Hold onto this love. Cherish it & thank her for an amazing upbringing.. A lot of people never had that motherly touch. It’s Mother Nature to have someone there for you as that figure in your life. Wether it was neglect, abandonment or death. Not everyone gets that. I appreciate your kind words, as they brought a smile to my face. 😊
PS:
Sorry for my rant, I just want you to know just truly how lucky you are❤️
Praying over y’all!
My parents were super laid back and I never had any sort of rules growing up. When I was with other kids I would wonder why I never had to be home by a certain time and hoped my parents would care if I didn't come home one day. My sister ran wild but I always craved the structure. My life still fell apart regardless so I guess I should've been living it up more.
Parents who are passive are also abusive.
That's funny my mum was like that with me, cuz she grew up super strict. I went off the rails at a young age as well. It seems to go in cycles. I'm a strict parent and my kid will be laid back no doubt
I wish my parents wouldn't have let me just run wild. I dropped outta school super early (8th grade) & ended up smoking weed & drinking. I moved out of my house with this guy's family that all they (we) did was party. It messed my life up so much, i started getting in lots of trouble & was always in & out of jail & addicted to banging hardcore drugs. I'm 36 & only just started getting my shit together about 5 years ago. I hate that i was allowed to just run wild & do whatever. It absolutely ruined my life.
There's a sweet spot middle ground that children need and crave so much but so many parent from one end of the spectrum instead of that sweet spot
Same but kids that grow up like that get in trouble slot as kid and maybe as adults.
It’s funny how strict parents probably think they’re keeping their kid safe but really they’re just making their kid into a professional at sneaking around, lying, and doing all of this shit in privacy
No kid can be raised the same. Some kids are born to explore and some not so much.
@@SWreacts regardless of how the kid needs to be raised. Strict parents make that decision for you.
You can be goody two shoes everywhere all the time. Strict parents will still find a way to justify their strictness. They'll get it in their heads that you're only good because of them.
@@TallicaMan1986 yup. was a goody two shoes that got impulsive with time because of strictness
My strict (and abusive) parent just made me terrified to ever do anything lmao and I’m learning things as an adult now that I should have learned as a teenager :/
Theres a fine line between strict and good parenting, these parents are not strict for wanting there kids to not be smokers and drinkers, as well as vandals. Cant imagine wanting your kids to act right and have a good life beong strict lol. These parents look like awesome parents compared to mine, strict parents feel alot better then a beating that puts you in the hospital then gotta lie so you dont get beat again out of fear...🤔🤦♂️
The show is about troubled teens who are sent to strict families by their parents so the strict family can straighten them out. One thing to note is that the teens aren't always sent to you US, like there's been episodes where the teens have been sent to India, one episode they were sent to Singapore.
Also this was the Australian version of the show. There used to be an American version and I think there was a British version at some point

INDIA? SINGAPOURE? NAHHHHH

the reason they send them to the states is that in the U.S. they can just sign over parental control and it was a massive thing in the 80s-90s where kids would essentially be kidnapped and sent to camps for re-education to get rid of their problematic behaviours, and it was completely legal because the people keeping them captive had the same power over them as the parents legally.
Honestly, growing up with strict parents just taught me how to be sneakier if I got caught. I became an impulsive liar, was secretive, and would NOT talk, touch or look at them. It was awful to be constantly monitored, tracked down, etc. I felt naked, I felt watched, I had 0 privacy. Cos family was "supposed" to be open with each other. I never enjoyed any sort of family bonding we had cos just being around them made me feel uneasy. It was an instinct to want to be somewhere else when one or both of them were in the same room. In my case, my parents' way of discipline and their methods of sheltering me only pushed me away from them.
EXACTLY
So good watching Ken slowly become assimilated with the Australian lore 🤣
in my personal experience punishing kids to this level just makes them act up more. Anything you say they will do the opposite and the more extreme you are the more extreme they will be. It’s a challenge to them
Came here to say this, I know if my parent's treated me with this much distrust and disrespect I would be way worse than I am today. I never had a reason to rebel so when I started smoking weed, they knew, they didn't like it but they also weren't gonna stop me from making my own choices (I was like 17 and it was maybe once a week at the time). If I was treated like shit because I smoked weed or vaped, I would have done it a lot more since I was immature at the time and might have tried to self-medicate my depression with weed. Because they knew about it they knew they could tell me if it was becoming a problem which gave them piece of mind. Best practice in my book is to teach your kids to be honest with you, if you don't punish them for telling you things, they wont keep (as many) secrets and things that could be bad turn into a discussion of why it might be bad instead of just punishing without explaining. Kids need rational explanations for why they are being punished at the very least, teens need a conversation, not a punishment (in most cases).
What about what they do beforehand? It really doesn't seem like they pay much attention until AFTER their kids do shit instead of trying to avoid it in the first place.
@@LightWeaver_Cyph I understand where you're coming from. My ex fiance was the same. His parents always acted like he was a failure and he never pursued any of his interests and continued on smoking weed and everything, even more so everytime they said anything about it because he felt so bad about himself.
But when we become adults, we get to make our own decisions. It isn't easy, but I see him at least trying to make better choices and cut down or quit bad habits. He still lives at home too, and I feel bad because I know it's in his face all the time (the disappointment and guilt). But I also understand what made him that way and I know his mom's a good person and it comes from a place of caring. I'm sure she's tired of dealing with shit, but I also know she's enabled it. I wish I could talk to her.
I always liked her but I'm not an open person so we never breached that bridge. I'm glad you weren't raised to feel that way and found success.
That pissed me off they spray painted that animal.
Dude really blasted him with a fire extinguisher as if it’s not toxic to people
Hell, I was too scared to attempt anything with my folks and they were still strict AF. I was 18, going to college FT, had a PT job at the college, PT job at Super D and tutored and I still didn't have a curfew because I wasn't allowed to do anything. I left at 19. Love my folks but they could have loosened the reigns a little!
Awwh 🥺🥺🥺 well HOPEFULLY you’re a super nice adult 😇 that’s all that matters when it comes to raising kids, even if they don’t like you in some aspects
The premise of this show is literally just bad parents giving their kids to different bad parents, so they can then be returned to their original bad parents.
Like neglectful parents giving their kids to parents that directly torment you under the cover of "strict"
Nah not all of the “strict” parents on this show were bad.And the teenagers behavior in this clip is disgusting they were lucky all they had to do was help around the house and fix their own mess. Jail was a real option.
@@Shewas-kathybates i do agree this episode wasn't to bad
Teens did do that to themselves and were lucky lol
But the few episodes i watched i honestly hated how stuff was handled because usually those are troubled traumatized kids and it was quite often really close to that line of mental or even physical abuse(there is a german version too which was uh.. yeah.. from what i remember horrible lol)
@@calycalyps0 Exactly.
@@Shewas-kathybates I mean, maybe not every single one of them, but when I think about the American idea of a "strict parent", I typically think of someone with an inflated ego who abuses power dynamics in order to make themselves feel important.
Buff’s laugh is so wholesome!👍🏻
Being aggressive and using punishment to “teach your kids a lesson” never works. Your kids are not gonna respect you, they are either gonna fear you, hate you or both.
Of course there should be consequences for breaking rules, but you can do that by sending them to their room. Teach them _why_ what they did was wrong. Sit down and talk to them. Kids aren’t stupid, you can actually talk to them like they’re people. I know, crazy right? Also, if you end up in a fight, it’s ok to send them off to cool off, but it’s critical that you get on good terms again afterwards. Then they will actually want to keep the rules, and they will respect you as a parent, because you respect them as kids.
Your kids are the only people you should love absolutely unconditionally.
no it works. some kids need more than punishment like ths, they need a punch to the face in some cases with boys
I mean, it works to show them consequences, but I don’t think the kid will do what you taught for the right reason if the motivation is only fear.
If the kids are conditioned since birth like how the OP described, I doubt that they’d suddenly do a 180 in personality unless if someone else influenced em.
I feel like the kids that only listen to harsher punishments weren’t raised the way the OP described to begin with.
@@aristobrat4987 I am not convinced punching your kid in the face is a good way to make them learn
Growing up my parents always had the principle that if we did something wrong we'd have something confiscated for a period of time. But if we did something wrong, and a problem I caused happened, I always knew i could go to them for help, and they'd help. Like if i was doing something bad online and something negative happened- they'd help me get out of the situation. It meant that i felt i could tell my parents stuff, though obviously not everything.
I think it helped that I knew what they were like growing up and they didn't treat me and my brother like we were supposed to mindlessly follow orders and not speak unless spoken to like some families. Our opinions were acknowledged which yes, caused frictions and arguments, but also meant that I respected my parents and their rules because I actually understood them- because they took the time to tell me why.
Ken learning our Aussie culture is just perfect 😂 I could watch that all day
It would be Interesting to see how this cycle began. The teens appear deserving but the parents are likely responsible for their shitty attitudes and the parents set example with their destructive “punishment”. Everyone escalates from what the other party did, seems a dangerous pattern.
Exactly!!
Not always. My best friend is a model child. Her brother is a skinhead the family doesn't even talk to since he's literally punched everyone in the family. Some kids are just shit no matter how good the parents are. And some kids are good no matter how shit the parents are. It goes both ways.

Americans definitely shorten words. We just don't botch languages and make complete gibberish out of everything. @@xx_predalien_xx4217
Here’s a tough pill for you parents to swallow. The more strict you are on your kids, the crazier they will be when they finally get out on their own
Or even before then. Strict parents create super sneaky teens.
@@sydthakyd98 exactly.
and a tough pill for teens to swallow. parents guiding you doesnt mean youre a victim
@@Hugh.G.Rectionx alright Joey rolltide, calm down, go find a cousin to have a relationship with.
@@Hugh.G.Rectionx Also being overly strict or spoiling your kids is actually considered abuse so that does make them a victim
Clear boundaries are what ALL children need. So, good on you, Ken and Mary, for providing them to your children, they will...eventually, be very grateful to you. Loved the video thanks Ken and Dane.
Somehow they only managed to break the glass in that door perfectly in the ONE pane so it's cheaper to fix. How nice of them.
One of my friends was on it when she was a teen, they stage alot of the teens doing bad stuff at their homes. Like they made her sneak out the window when she could've just left to make it look worse
I mean, the “strict parents” destroyed their bags. The teens retaliate by vandalising their property. Then the guy takes it to the next lever, and then expects that to magically gain their respect? I’ve never seen this type of parenting work. Working out a mutual respect and communicating
I agree, escalating every event won't work in the long run, lead by example, punish by requirement
they broke the rules by smuggling in drugs and alcohol. if they hadn't, they wouldn't have gotten their bags destroyed.
@@LadySmartcat there was no need to destroy the bags. Consequences are needed obviously but destroying their personal belongings is not the way to go, as we see it literally encourages them to retaliate by doing the same
yeah, this family needs some hecking therapy. xD they all have issues...
@@LadySmartcat and that shows you are an abuser
"Dad" was more stupid than strict, imo. You can't do unto the child as the child did unto you. That's immature and doesn't change one thing with the kid.
i was thinking that too, especially when he was waking the kid up with water and laughing about it. even if the kids hate it, he's still giving off the feeling that he's not taking it seriously. kids don't have respect for that kind of thing.
This family is sickening...the children are acting out in that way because that's how their dad tries to prove his power. Talk about an unchecked ego.
Those aren’t their kids. These are at “risk kids” that the show places with strict parents to “straighten” them out. I saw one episode where it worked but it probably depends on in which ways they’re strict. The family where it worked was focused a lot on self respect and I think the punishments were reasonable things like extra chores. I don’t think anyone got spray painted in that episode.
As retentive and authoritarian as my mother was growing up - due to mental illnesses later identified - and the severe neglect and everything I dealt with from my donor who has munchausen syndrome by proxy, I have never ONCE acted like this.
This is some next-level acting out lol. Maybe it was far of retribution or maybe it's because I'm not much of a risk taker, but I lean towards #2 haha.
Not that I agree with either party - kids or parents - at all here. Parents need to stop blaming the kids so much when they don't seem all that attentive until they decide to go through their shit, and the kids just have ZERO boundaries. They all need to do some serious work.
I think there’s three modes of parenting: weak, assertive and aggressive. Parents tend to be either weak and never care at all, or aggressive and they are authoritarians not parents, I think the middle ground of assertive is best really. I have strict parents. They had rules, but they sat me down and explained why each rule exists and what the purpose was, made sure I understand, and that’s that. I also do not understand the idea of “if parents have rules teens will sneak away or lie”. How can you blame lying on the parents? Teens aren’t babies they choose of their own free will to do things. Halving a lot of friends with strict parents as well, none of us really ever snuck out. We understand the rules and just operated perfectly fine within them. But I can understand when a kid is mad because their parents have unreasonable rules. That’s why I think assertive parenting with some attached reason and explanation is important. Although let’s not lie, teens can be pieces of shyte so… sometimes strictness is perfectly fine.
Yes! In my family related classes they called it permissive, authoritative and authoritarians types! Authoritative is the best! Basically it balances needs and wants. Authoritarian only forces. Permissive is high rewards low boundaries.
Yeah, my parents were strict and I didn't get to do a lot of things, but also they explained how the world is and that they have to be strict so I survive and make wise choices, and then I just didn't have that desire to do bad things, I wasn't tempted to sneak out or do bad things, and I thought my peers who did were foolish. Even after turning 18 I wasn't all stoked to start drinking and partying, I already heard the stories of my parents partying as teens and in their early 20s and it didn't sound like fun, it sounded stressful, all they had to do was tel me what they went through when they were my age and it turned me off of making those foolish adolescent choices.
@@debfox came here looking for this! Authoritative=you can't go out until your room is clean, no compromises. Authoritarians=YOU CAN NEVER LEAVE RAA YOU ARE A MAGGOT
yeah its the whole "because i said so" that doesn't work unless you get regularly violent with your child and don't think it's a problem.
i took multiple classes for stuff similar to this, the four parenting styles you are thinking of are;
- Authoritative: This parenting style has been consistently linked to most positive outcomes and therefore is seen as the most socially valued. There is a balance between demand and being warm/accepting. With clear rules and still values independence. Kids with parents like this are more likely to be better at socializing and less mental illness.
- Authoritarian (or Disciplinarian): These parents have high expectations and expect blind obedience. This creates high levels of parental control and low levels of parental responsiveness towards the child. They only allow one-way communication through strict rules and orders. Any attempts to reason with them are seen as backtalk. Kids with this type of parenting will result in mental illness, more inclined to get into drugs, and have low social skills.
- Permissive (or Indulgent): Permissive parents set very few rules and boundaries and they are reluctant to enforce rules. This creates a low demanding, high responsiveness household. Kids with these types of parents tend to throw more temper tantrums, posses egocentric tendencies, and encounter more problems in relationships/social interactions.
- Neglectful (or Uninvolved): Neglectful parents do not set firm boundaries or high standards. They are indifferent to their children’s needs and uninvolved in their lives. These uninvolved parents may have mental issues themselves such as depression, physical abuse, or child neglect when they were kids. Children of neglectful parents aren't able to self regulate emotions, are prone to addictions, and suicidal behavior.
and writing/reading all this makes you realize just how much all types of parents affects you, that everyone literally has a reason for the way they act/see the world. genetics/environment
That’s seriously the best way to make your kids hate you and teach them having normal boundaries is wrong. Like wtf is wrong with these parents.
You see how much vandalism those teens decided to partake in? Rock through a window, spray paint everywhere... All they had to do was clean up their mess. When I was eight, I wrote one word on a fence in CHALK and my parents made me scrub and paint the entire fence so it looked brand new. Two inches of an easily removable substance caused three afternoons of unnecessary work when some soap, water, and apology would've easily sufficed as punishment. Learn what strict is lol.
@@HKMcRooney I think their comment was more about the fire extinguisher sort of moments
@@risksandhope1849 That part was immature at best; something a teenager or twenty-something would do, not a strict adult. From what we've seen here, these people are not strict. Overall, they seem to be doing a pretty good job holding these kids to personal responsibility and the fact that actions have consequences. Small bouts of immature actions are the exact antithesis of "strict" especially when said actions are in line with how a typical frat boy or "prankster" type would react to something.
I think it’s pathetic to sink to their kids’ level and start spraypainting their skin or something. Being a strict yet loving parent is a completely different to humiliation, for example, and not necessarily even knowing how to handle their own emotions/actions etc. There are consequenses when someone acts and does stupid things, but it should be handled like adults & not like uneducated, vengeful idiots.
Well if you watched the full show, they would have told the things you questioned. The kids are from all over, mostly America, UK, Aus. They get sent around the world to a strict family. These kids are BAAD but it's only because of their real parents failing to be a parent and talking with their children. These kids only do drugs and all that because they want attention from parents.
The strict family either doesn't care and breaks the kid down or reach a level of understanding but thats only when the kid was living there.
Yea it’s unsurprising they just went along with it and laughed at this horribly ineffective way of parenting.
@@LacroixboiMarx I mean its fun to laugh at these kids but there is always context to that show
Yessssss. I've been binge watching these glad someone recommended. These parents crack me up. The kids almost always break by the end tho and some even keep in contact with their "strict parents" overseas
This one brought some childhood memories back :D
Anyways, I think that every generation has their general parenting style: our grandparents were strict but there was an honor to gain from hard work. Our parents wanted to be less strict but pranks got too wild and they had to be strict to the extent they came to rule with fear and then came the social media which has become a parent of itself.
The more I watch Dane, I’m becoming more of a fan. He’s funny asf and it seems like he would be an awesome friend to hang out with. He’s like the kind of guy who can always make you laugh. with serious topics he always has something insightful to say, but usually keeps it lighthearted, which I appreciate a lot!
Keep it real Dane and Ken
p.s.
Ken I’ve been watching your videos for almost 8 years, I love to see the growth and evolution of the channel! Proud of you!
I agree 100% I love him so much he’s always such a wonderful happy guy to watch if I wasn’t married lol 😂
i like him tho but he just agress to everything tho dont have his own opinion on anything
I've only watched like 4 of these videos but he hasn't said anything unique. I don't even know why he's there actually
I would say that I grew up with a strict father, but mostly it was abusive. I don't mean he yelled at me, but cold cocked me in the face at 13, threw a weight on my brother in his sleep at 16, cracked his skull at 20, burned me with a cigarette at 7... And that list goes on.
I'll take a ripped up purse any day over the shit we went through.
I’m sorry your father was abusive but yea in my experience this I don’t understand how this parent is even remotely strict. I mean idiot parenting tactics aside, this is nothing.
Flushing stuff down the toilet is just the parent power move. When I was a teen my parents went through my room and found an ounce of weed that a friend got me from a weed clinic. They called me into their room and made me dump it in the toilet and flush it.
YEARS LATER she told me they ended up taking a bunch of the weed before they made me flush it and said it was really good.. I guess just add insult to injury huh?
HAHAH You cant waste good weed!
i doubt they even really did that. theyre just saying it to tease u a bit. as you said, adding insult to injury.
@@CutzMcOnions I’m pretty sure they really did take some. My parents smoke weed, I didn’t know at the time but they had very limited access and were scared about getting a medical card. So they more than likely did take some for free instead of buying it from their sketchy dealers for like $60 1/8th
@@Bloodreign137 either way, getting free weed from parenting. they got you good bro
could be to add insult to injury. but could be that they didn't want you doing weed as a youngster. it's not the best for teens to be doing (brains not fully developed) on top of the fact they likely didn't want you smoking it because youre young and still effects your lungs.
like an adult that drinks that doesn't want their teen to drink.
your body isn't ready for this stuff and it can effect your brain long term.
Overly strict parents then wonder why their kids move away to never speak to them again and abandon them in the worst nursing home like they deserve
Man, I feel like this is just bad parenting to the max. Like, okay, your kid is drinking or smoking. Find out why, talk to them about the dangers, and make sure they know that they can go to you. For example if a kid is drinking behind their parent's back, they already feel like they can't talk to them. You don't have to be your kids' 'friend' but you definately need to show them that you respect them and aren't going to get angry when they mess up.
If they really wanted to scare these kids, they should have sent them to Detroit.
kid: drinks and smoke
abusive parents: shows violence with a hammer
good parents: talks to them about the risks, find out why they need to self medicate, have them go to a support group or kid version of AA
kid: breaks a shed and spray paints it
abusive parents: acts like a ten year old and sprays them back
good parents: helps teach the kid how to rebuild and repair the the shed, find out why they broke it, get them something they can break for fun if they need to vent anger like legos, anger management techniques if needed
There were so many other ways to react to their actions and kids always follow by example. If their violence is met with more violence the cycle will never end. If they are seeking attention and the parent just responds with anger, the parent will never get to the true root of why the kid felt the need to act out or self medicate. These kids don't need strict parents, they need attentive and supportive parents.
The spray painting got me lmao he's like you want to spray paint my crap I'll spray paint you 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love reading people's stories and anecdotes on videos like these!
I was a CO for years, and not even I'm this strict with my kid.
These folks are nuts haha. Parents wonder why their kids resent them in their older years these days.
You forced them to exist on this plane, you best be better to them lol.
FOR REAL
My friend is a CO and he wouldn't do anything like that to the inmates.
There is a UK version,, and Australian, Austrian, and German version. And I have seen a lot of UK teens seemingly turned around for the better because of the show. Honestly, although it is a "reality" tv show, which means there is a lot of twisting of reality behind the scenes, there is genuine affection, care and tenderness shown by the temp parents, and the kids when they say sorry to their parents, write them a letter, read a letter from mom. Etc. And so I say, this is one of my favorite shows -- partly because I think it adds value to society. It is not just trash ...although there are bound to be some lies fed to us. ;)
The kids are sent everywhere: Barbados, India, America, Canada, Kenya, Jamaica, Ghana.....
the only strict thing my parents did was not let me watch R rated movies until I was 13. But other than that, pretty laid back.
My mom freaked out when I watched an R movie at the age of 18 haha
13? Lmao that's not strict
Meanwhile at 13 my parents had no problem with me watching A Clockwork Orange, and even suggested Heavy Metal LOL
My parents also let me start watching R movies at 13. 😂 I don't think that's strict.
My parents were so strict, the only way I was able to do anything I wanted to do was to just do it and hope for forgiveness. I was 18 when I started playing GTAV behind thier backs because they didn't let me ever play it
Hell yeah, I love this show. I randomly found it on TH-cam a couple years ago and binged every episode I could find. Hope y’all do more episodes
Dude! When you made fun of that bald guy's ears calling him Nosferatu I laughed so loud. That was literally the loudest I've ever laughed. 🤣
Even if this was staged, the fire extinguisher was too far. That dust left behind is toxic and builds up in your lungs.
I couldn't hardly watch. Literal child abuse
As if the drugs they snort isn't toxic enough.
And spray painting inside and directly onto their skin? That can't be good for them either.
Its for the funny tho
My parents were strictly neglectful. Kinda grateful after even seeing the first 3 minutes of this video. I could’ve stored a whole distillery under my bed and they wouldn’t have gotten involved lol. Thankfully, I was just into comic books and video games. Such a rebel
I love Ken's old man rambling teaching us fun facts about Australia
As a Australian, I can say that we say words weird: cigarettes are ‘ciggies’, barbecue is called the ‘barbie’, ‘aggro’ means aggressive, ‘arvo’ is afternoon, ‘bottle-o’ is the liquor store. We say all kinds of weird things and the most common thing is mate. If you’re from Australia, you don’t call people ‘friends’, you call them mates. Even instinctively. I instinctively use arvo, barbie and mate
So glad I had a GREAT childhood. Thank you mom and dad for structure, discipline, and a high moral values.
My parents are very strict. I'm 17 and not allowed to watch R rated movies, not allowed to listen to non-Christian music, absolutely no swearing allowed, and not allowed to have social media (even though I've always been a behaved child). Obviously, I do all those things lol, but I have to hide it
Your parents are foolish and misguided control freaks, but when you have your own household and eventually family you'll be able to figure out what actually is and isn't acceptable. I hope you can get out at 18.
@Future Pants Religious parents are the worst monsters inside and work so hard to seem perfect outside.
Being overly strict often breaks the spirit of your children, or creates more resentful more rebellious kids who won't be able to function well in society...this is an abusive family dynamic or its staged
My mom was a strict helicopter parent and that caused me to rebel like CRAZY. The first time I snuck out, I was 14- and got into a major car accident where we nearly lost our lives. Completely changed the course of my life. I was life flighted to the hospital and out of school my entire freshman year. The driver of the car I was in was internally decapitated and in a coma for 41 days. I understand my Mom’s fears so much more now. It’s really all I can think about watching these shows.

@@Truecrimeresearcher224 Singapore
I like how the dad is acting all cool and tough when it’s obvious he never enforced anything before this show
Or maybe the kids just feel like there's nothing they can do to be accepted by their parents... So might as well just do whatever they want anyway. The kids are being actually abused - spray painting your kids is abuse. The kids are acting out .. because they're being abused. They're abusing, because they've been abused.
They aren't these kids' parents. It's a family that they were sent to stay with for like a week.
this guy actually works with troubled kids locally. He does horse therapy and helps get kids help and get them on the right path
He spray painted his head n arms BECAUSE OF THE MULLET!!!
He bought the kids the booze and smokes!!!
LMADO!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'd love to see more of this show!!! It's entertaining thanks to you guys but it also is therapeutic to watch in a weird way
I literally just checked with police here in Canada.... they said this is worth charging the parents over. So I think they'd both be I'm trouble, but the parents would be more at fault, because you can't just spray paint or blast a kid in the face with a fire extinguisher
You know what else is illegal? Destruction of private property & vandalism.
I like how the show usually sends these annoying bad kids to other countries with needlessly strict and borderline abusive parents and then the clips only show the least worrying moments from those families. There's this one episode where they send teens to an African country. The parents took the children to the beach, where the girl put on a swimsuit, a very appropriate swim suit. The mother of the family went over to her and told her she's gonna get raped looking like that, and to cover her stomach, which she did. THEN the mother thought that wasn't enough and decided to scare the teen girl into thinking she's never safe in that country because any man that looks at her will try to rape her. The parents are awful in this show.
On the OTHER side of the spectrum was a pair of American gay dads who didn't force the teens to take out any piercings or cut their hair, or anything like that. They were very respectful and fun guys who instead of verbally abusing the teens made them feel safe and loved. THAT is good parenting. There was also a Scandinavian couple that was acceptable as well, and that's it. All the rest are terrible. It should be considered abuse to put your kid on this show.
After 5 months of watching this channel I can finally say, thank you for the birthday wishes!
Happy birthday lol
Happy birthday!
i LOVE this show!! I used to binge watch it when i had nothing else to do lol
The Australian Kids can't wait to go back to their home and buy some more Ziggys and Alcohol. This episode is very strange asF!
😅😅😂😂
Does anybody else want a video of Ken telling us more about things that are different or said differently in Australia? Lol
Nah. I live here.
Where were the strict parents?? They only showed the teenager acting up??
“World’s Strictest Parents” my ass. These people have never met my parents. 😂 The guy in this clip seems chill AF. If I would have done the stuff those kids did, my parents would have beaten me within an inch of my life and thrown me in jail, not take me to the hardware store to get cleaning supplies.
He was laughing and smiling while spray painting them and throwing water on them. My dad never did that. I did something wrong? Into his room where he was waiting with a belt. No laughs. No smiles.
@@Reznic007 Are… are we siblings?? 😂
you were literally abused
I literally wasn’t because I actually behaved. I mean, I agree that my parents were too strict, but they never ACTUALLY beat me because I knew not to do stupid shit like this. I saw another commenter remark that parenting like I experienced resulted in fear, not respect, and I don’t think that’s wrong - I definitely had a healthy fear of my mom, especially - but at least I grew up understanding that part of respectfully existing in a society means not trashing things that don’t belong to you or acting like a general asshole.
I’m trying to do better for my own kids - my parents yell at me all the time for not being “strict enough” with them, but I just treat them like human beings who I love and who sometimes mess up and have bad days. I point that out because I’m not ENDORSING the way my parents raised me, by any means, but I always knew that my parents loved me and would do whatever they could for me. They just expected me to be a decent kid.
I thought my parents were strict until I saw this show and realized, oh my parents just set boundaries and rules and stick with them, While my friends had the "fun parents" that let them do whatever they want growing up
Ken talking about bogans : "They're great. They're fantastic" 😐
Me: DEAD 🤣🤣🤣
To not let minors indulge in destructive behaviour, that's the bare minimum of strictness.
These videos come out on my lunch break, I got a whole hour to revel in the cringe. 😎 Y’all are important, and you matter
I had a strict mom when I was little, and she's now relaxed since I'm an adult now. But just seeing the kids smoking and drinking and sneaking it around and screwing up property, the dad gave a really loose punishment.
Ah yes the worst punishment possible...getting sent to the USA 🤣
I watch that show when I'm cooking/doing dishes sometimes. 😂 It was fun watching someone else's opinions on the show. (Also the "Stella" portion was from those teens spraypainting the "strict" family's pet sheep.)
Basically, problematic teens (from USA, UK, etc) get shipped off to some other country with a strict family for a couple weeks and they see what their life could be like to see how easy they actually have it back at home. The strict families provide structure and the teens (eventually) respond well to it. There is also a "where are they now" episode and it brings the teens back to tell you if they continued to behave with their regular families.
I would kill to watch a vid where ken shows buff Australian things he’s learnt 😂
I'm waiting for the family learning the Nutbush
Child and teens need structure, rules and boundaries. But..... they also deserve privacy and some freedom to make mistakes and learn from them. To learn problem solving skills, they need, to become an independent adults.
Respect should go both ways and it is also something that needs to be earned.
a child having freedom and privacy is earned. a child who constantly lies and steals and vandalizes has no right to freedom if they are already abusing what little trust there already is in them. they can earn that trust back by stopping the lying and sneaking around.
my parents trusted me 100 percent when I was growing up because I never gave them anything to doubt me. I never lied. I never snuck around. I always told them where I was and who I was with.
meanwhile two former friends of mine constantly lied and snuck around their parents while their parents gave them more freedom than me.... and then had the gall to complain why the 1% of time they actually told the truth their parents never believed them.
they couldn't. you lie 99% of the time, there's no reason for anyone to trust you. simple shit.
the only time a parent is over strict is when that child does everything right and they still try coming down on the kid and treating the kid like a prisoner. which 99% of these situations aren't that.
@@fireemberess You're very lucky and stupid at the same time. You blame the children, when there are tons of parents with messed up heads who won't trust their children no matter what. This is when children learn they're being punished for honesty, they start to lie more and more even about small things. It's like with some people who always think their partners are cheating, it gets more and more obsessive so you have to hide even an innocent chat with your coworker because it will feed their insecurity. And they will explode.
y mother once destroyed my shop project because she didn’t know what it was and assumed it was something bad. I didn’t retaliate, I blamed myself for bringing it home. Bad parenting can prepare you for customer service, always think ahead and prepare for Karen behaviour

That dog wasn't full grown by the way. It's a Great Pyrenees. I have one. These dogs were bred to guard and protect livestock against wolves bears and other large predators. It takes a special human to deal with them as a pet as opposed to or working livestock guardian dog. People think they're stubborn and that's not the case. They just have genetics that tell them to make their own decisions and that typically their decisions are the right decisions. Therefore, they don't listen! These are amazing dogs but so many are gotten rid of in the first two to five years because people expect them to behave as other dogs behave. These dogs shed year round and twice a year they do what's called blowing their coat. It doesn't just fall out it more or less flies out. They bark incessantly and it's typically at night because this is an nocturnal breed bread to guard flocks and herds at night when the farmer is asleep. They also guard resources like food and toys. Humans mistake this for aggression when they are just doing what their genetics tell them to do. Back in the day the farmer would come out drop off enough food and water for them for a few days sometimes up to 2 weeks, so these dogs guard their resources because they're genetics tell them that they need to make these resources last. Not eating is another issue I hear a lot of owners crabbing about. They should never be cut short or shaved because they're double coat cools them in the summer as much as it warms them in the winter. They literally behave as if they are deaf but they can hear the crinkle of a cellophane chip bag through three walls with the stereo cranked up. They are loving sweet dogs but they are equally fierce. If they don't have livestock to guard they will guard whatever they can find. Children cats other dogs and they do have a propensity to scrap with other dogs because their job is to guard against predators so they will often see another dog as a predator. What I'm saying here is folks need to stop getting these dogs because they're super cute fluffy little white puff balls because by the time they grow into the big white fluffy nightmare they become they are gotten rid of simply for being true to what their genetics tell them to be. If someone is interested in getting one of these dogs I suggest a minimum of two to three years hard research and for crying out loud get one from a rescue, don't purchase a puppy!
This is why active parenting is a good thing. My mother raised all 4 of us girls with rules and boundaries. We are now all productiive adults.
I love watching some parents struggle after they have created little entitled monsters. They think "oh it's ok, they are little, we can let them run wild"...... when the child is then 13, that becomes a nightmare because the children do not have any respect for others or the law, and value nothing.
The most rewarding moments is when they start saying please and thank you without being told, behave when you go shopping, and respect others around them, including other children and adults they do not know well. I do not want my child to be a disrespectful little asshole, that's why there are rules that are enforced.
I am not your little friend, I am your babysitter/parent/responsible adult. If I fail in instilling values and boundaries, it is setting the child up for misery and failure later.
Being a good parent sometimes means tough love. I see that now.
I’ve been waiting for this video for so long!! Thank you

A little known fact about Australia, don't come here if your a smoker. In Australia, a packet of 20 cigarettes will cost you about $30AUD. And when you arrive, there's no place to have one until you go through customs and get out the front of the airport. There, you can have a smoke in a small designated smoking area where you can have one among 30+ people who also have been hanging for a smoke.
I see no strict parents: I just see parents.
Yes! My parents aren't strict, they raised me right to be a law abiding citizen with a love for my country. Now if you ask my sister she'd say they were strict. Different attitudes. I'm so happy my parents raised me the way they did

@@SangriaDracul if teaching your kids to be responsible for their actions then I guess the definition of bullying has changed. Cant imagine being so entitled that good parenting isnbulkying lmao. True bullying would be destroying everything the kid owns then dropping them off at a foster home lol, or maybe the ranch.
@Future Pants if what the parent did was illegal on video then I'm sure they will go to jail....🤦♂️
