Not sure if this is the right forum for this question.. it's about my parents and how they raised me. I don't remember a lot of early childhood but I remember being afraid all the time. I was afraid of doing anything wrong. My mom would sometimes humiliate me. Also they expected me to get perfect grades in school and I cried when I didn't get an A in 2nd grade. They exerted a ton of authority over me and I felt powerless all the time.

I'd like to try to get a better understanding of their behavior... if anyone knows what that's called or if there are any books on it... please let me know, thanks
