妈妈对我特别严厉。假期里，我只顾着玩，没有完成作业。妈妈非常生气，罚我站了半个多小时，站得我腿都酸了。
Mother is very strict with me. During the holidays, I just played and didnt finish my homework. Mother was so angry that she punished me for standing for more than half an hour, which made my legs sore.
晚上睡觉的时候，我搂着爸爸的脖子，哭着说：妈妈真凶，我不喜欢她。爸爸说：妈妈对你严厉，是因为她爱你。
When I went to bed at night, I put my arms around my fathers neck and cried, Mom is so fierce, I dont like her. Dad said, Mother is tough on you because she loves you.
爸爸说的是真的吗?
Is what Dad said true?
