Do you think super strict parents become estranged parents once their children become adults?

I was raised with extremely super strict parents. I was not allowed to say the word stupid my mom hates that word for whatever weird reason. I wasn't read harry Potter books or the twilight series because according to my religion Catholic fanatic parents tough had witch craft sources or whatever. I was obligated to pray the rosary each and every single freaking day lol and attend mass each Sunday my mom would called to Kroger my first job to get Sunday's off just for church. All my teachers said I was a well behaved quiet kid at the time. People tell me stories when they were teenagers at the time they would go drink their parents expensive wine they get shocked and tell me I didn't do nothing wrong for going and watching twilight movie. Yes my aunt took me to see twilight my mom said it was demonic because someone told her it was about vampires. I always made good grades and I didn't answer back. My mom always told me I was the worst kid ever. I cut my mom of after I try to get a civilized normal conversation but my parents end up screaming and yelling at me. That was one of the main reasons I cut them off. I hear a podcast about this one guy about him growing up with scrit parents now he is 37 year old and he cut off his super strict mom. I wonder if any one here has extremely strict parents and now as adults you're estranged?

It depends on the kids and how willing the parents are to let go of control. I have a pretty good Mom in that she allowed me to do a lot of things as a teenager. As a result, I attracted a lot of friends who had controlling mothers. In each case, distance greatly improved their relationships. One mother refused to pay for her child’s college because she wouldn’t enlist in the airforce like she always wanted her to do, so she paid for it herself without her mother’s help. Last I heard, they’re getting along much better now. Another friend had to get a mediator because out of all 4 of her kids none of them wanted to continue a relationship with her and wanted to improve it for their younger siblings who couldn’t leave yet, and it worked out well. In yet another example, my friend moved out for several years, got therapy, and set boundaries with her parents. They fought back at first, but as she kept her foot down, they eventually decided to listen and now their relationship is improving greatly. Only in one case that I know of personally did the parents become “estranged” but they were foster parents and the friend was pretty wild in general, as well as impulsive alongside an impressively complex mental cocktail of neuroses. They were constantly fighting and neither was willing to hear out the other.

I think parents that had others raise their kids become estranged

Yes, I read the obituaries and if I see somebody that died and has kids that all live far away. I figure they were a strict parent.

They get the karma back, once they become adult, they show the true face to parents.
