I grew up in a pretty strict household.  My dad was the disciplinarian 
I grew up in a pretty similar one too. Was your dad so strict that he got transformed into a robot like in the movie Robot Dad Strikes Back?

I recall that they made a live action movie in 2009.  It did not rate very highly with fans or critics.
