It 100% is.

My parents were abusive in this way.

My wife and I are strict. There is a huge difference.

It basically comes down to:

My parents: do it or I’ll kick your ass

My wife and I: please do it, here are the reasons for us asking and if you do it you get positive attention and possibly a physical reward.

If you don’t do it, we talk about why and we listen to the reasons they give and adjust our parenting style if necessary based on their feedback.

They then go and do it.
