Parenting 

A word parents use to describe to their kids so they can manipulate their kids. Usually parents that use this word are control freaks.

Joystick Parenting

As with video games, joystick parents want to dictate and control every aspect of the children's lives. Hence the term ‘joystick’. However, there is very little joy to be had by children when they are parented in this manner.

Can also be high-schoolers, or even in some depressing cases, college students living at home.
Nate's parents use joystick parenting because they keep track of his bank records, ground him from his phone, listen to all his voicemails, check his e-mail, check his facebook messages, get copies of his work schedule, check his phone records to make sure he is working at those times, control where he is allowed to drive, and also control which girls he is allowed to date, or even allowed to talk to for that matter.

parentalia 

A teen-ager; or young adult's parents. It ends in talia because they are attached to you, and would like to think they are in command (like other talias).
Dude, you wanna go to Vegas over Thanksgiving? Yeah I want to but I think the parentalia would kill me if I didn't show up for turkey day.

Parent Wrestling 

When a child walks in on his/her parents having sex and they say they're "just wrestling".
