There has never been a parent who admits to being an oppressive parent.
Does that mean none exist?
A "firm" parent believes in discipline. An "oppressive" parent believes that their children must have the exact same beliefs that they have.
I have heard you talk about the strict rules you have about how your daughters can dress and what sports are forbidden to them. Those have ZERO to do with discipline. Instead they are about forcing the children to believe and think exactly like you.
So, yes, you are clearly an oppressive parent.
