For a certain type of parent, no. They see immorality and demons behind every planter and think every other person in the world is out to snatch their kid. I definitely had classmates in my school days who were not afforded any privacy at all - diaries couldn’t be locked, journals were read through, any electronic records got read and gone over, etc.

Unsurprisingly, a large number of these people have grown up to be intensely private in their personal lives, and it’s incredibly difficult to pick the mask apart from the person even if you’re incredibly close. They won’t share any thought because their own thoughts were the only privacy they could have.
