A proud "super strict" mum from York only lets her kids watch TV once a week, throws away toys they leave out and never lets them eat sweets.
Elena Leeming, 39, believes strict parenting is the best way to "prepare kids for life".
Her children, Clive, six, and Violet, five, have done chores since they were three.
She only allows them to watch TV on Sundays and limits sugary snacks so they have "never eaten a Haribo in their lives".
The business analyst even throws away any toys that aren't tidied away as a punishment - regardless of how new or expensive they were.
Elena said her children are "happy and healthy" and feels the strict parenting style will be better for her children in the long run. Simon Walton has the story here.
