I agree really, one of my daughters friends who is very much "controlled" at home (and would never misbehave in front of her mother, or a teacher for that matter, because she is terrified of authority figures) can best be describes as nervous, anxious and insecure.
She is also incredibly angry and shoves, hits, grabs, and shouts in kids faces and lashes out when she thinks there aren't any adults looking.
