[quote=Anonymous]^^ adding that as a female, one of the main ways my parents controlled me was through transportation. There was no public transportation and I never saw a taxi in my suburb. The closest bank was probably 3-4 miles away on foot. I was dependent on my parents to get around. I was not allowed to even ride in a car of a friend unless my parents approved and allowed it. My father would have physically forced me back into the house if I had just left and insisted on doing something they wanted me to do. Other ways my parents controlled me was by listening into phone conversations (no cell phones back then) and monitoring my bank account. If I had stated using the money to do things they didn’t like, they would have done something severe like closing the account. It’s hard to accomplish much without any transportation and without any money! [/quote]
