A TikTok creator going by @mikitothefuture has gone viral after sharing a detailed account of growing up under what she describes as extreme parental control. In the video, she lists a series of rules her parents enforced during her childhood, ranging from bans on flip-flops and pop music to restrictions on how she wore her hair. The video has sparked widespread discussion online about controlling parenting and its effects on children.
The woman, who appears to have grown up in Australia or New Zealand based on her use of local slang like “jandals” and “bogans,” says both of her parents were professional classical musicians.
