What is the worst case of psycho-overprotective parenting that you've ever seen?

Just some bullet points from my child hood, am in mid 20s now:

-Old school TV broke when I was 5 or so, did not get a new one until junior year of high school

-Until I moved to college, no unplanned anything with friends. Mom demanded to know when, where, and insisted on driving me there and back. Basically she had to know exactly where I was at all times.

-Minimal computer gaming allowed, she would break CDs she found, I had to scrounge up money and sneak out to a store to get anything

-No allowance of any kind, this was more limiting because we were pretty well off and so were all my friends, so none of my peers understood the concept of not being able to buy something or do something that cost money

-Generalized anxiety + moderate germaphobia, she would insist on washing hands with disposable towellettes twice before we could eat out anywhere, and refused to let anyone leave the house during a storm.

-No contact sports at all, made me quit hockey as soon as I was old enough to be in a checking league, told every gym teacher that I wasn't allowed to run due to a mild congenital foot condition I have. This is in no way what the doctors recommended and I had to be 'that kid that just walked laps' anytime we had anything remotely interesting in gym class. Unsurprisingly was obese from a young age, although I did get decent at golf.

-My parents have a stunningly dysfunctional relationship, only got married when my dad was thought to be maybe dying of cancer, he survived, probably didn't want kids at all, ended up using IVF although I'm pretty sure fertility wasn't really an issue. Still married but they live in different states. Dad had basically no say in raising me or my sibling.

-Barely ever allowed to drive, even after getting my license I think I have driven the family car four times total without my Mom as a passenger. No accidents or dui or anything to justify this.

-Probably more that I'm forgetting. Overall I think I turned out ok, frankly I think a good chunk of my personality and extroverted nature came from seeing how sad my parents lives were.
