1 - They literally didn't give a shit about what I did.
10 - I might as well live in a maximum security prison.
My parent's were about a 6-7. My mom would nag me a lot growing up. My father was more liberal. Success in school was important to them, especially my mom. I finally ended up doing well in school late into high school.
How about you? Did you parents allow you to have relationships with the opposite sex? Curfews? Religious?

MIne were kind of schysophreniac in that sense. If on one side I could go where I wanted and they didn't dennie me any experience on my free time, on the other side I never had much free time because they used to put me to work around the house on weekends. So, in the end I never had much free time. From working at the small farm we had, to helping rebuild over and over our house (my father enjoyed building the house just to tear it apart after), I never had much time left.
In the end I think they trusted me. I was quite a peacefull boy: never did drugs, never smoked, never got into a real ugly bar fight, so... I also knew that if I did, my father would beat the hells and devils out of me... so. yeah, I think I had a conservative education and I managed to deal with it in the most non oposing way.
From 1 to 10. I think it would be a 7.
my parents were 10/10 strict.
when i was little, i was not allowed to leave my room to the living room, that's a problem.
was only allowed to watch tv on Saturdays and it's only in the morning.
if i was found outside the house, just in the compound, i was good as dead.
when i go to school, making friends was a problem. why? my parents said they do not send me to school to make friends but to study.
no friends was allowed to visit, be it male or female. none at all.
no video games, no bicycles, no outing, nothing fun.
i had the most boring childhood.
Growing up with a Nigerian parent i must admit that they were Harshhh
My dad died early in my life, so just mom here. She was nagging me about most stereotypical things all the time (I suppose most parents do). But I litteraly almost would do the opposite almost all the time. She would say go to school - I would stay at home (and learn here durring the night). She would say go to bed (I would stay up untill 5 am). Latter in life when I got into best university in my country she kept nagging to get good grades and learn a lot. After 6 months there I got a job in banking industry and started working while studying (kinda, but not really) at the same time. She kept insisting to finish that university and get a degree. I finally did, but instead of 4 years it took me 6, cuz that work kept me busy :D
Then she nagged me, when I decided to leave my position as private banker and become a small organic farmer :) and move from capital of lithuania to a small homestead in the middle of woods :D she kinda stopped all that about 2-3 years ago :D >30 years deep in my life :D as she understood that there is little hope that I will listen :)
My parents werent strict. But a very conservative. I was given the freedom to go out with friends and come late in the night as long as I follow their instructions for my life. Like I had to take engneering for my bachelors even though I didnt want to, cause it was important for them to tell in the society that, "My Son is a Mechanical Engineer".
I had relationships with the opposite sex, but never let them get a scent of it. Cause I don't know how they would react, being conservative parents. They didnt have any problem me having female friends come over for my birthday party.
I would rate my parents 3-4 on strictness.
