It's being cruel while ruling something or someone. Stern and mean and bossy and rude.

No the correct sentence would be:
She is tyrannical when dealing with her daughter.

Tyrannical-of or related to tyranny.
Tyranny-a very harsh and cruel system of government.
Tyrant-one who engages in tyranny.

I just came up with those from the top of my head but they're pretty accurate.

A tyrant (Latin Tyrranis, from Greek τύραννος týrannos) possesses absolute power through the people in a state or in an organization: one refers to this mode of rule as a tyranny. In ancient Greece, tyrants were generally aristocrats who had gained power over the others by getting the support of the poor people by giving them land, freeing them from slavery, etc. Support for the tyrants came from the growing class of business people and from the peasants who had no land or were in debt to the wealthy land owners. It is true that they had no legal right to rule, but the people prefered them over kings or the aristocrats... The Greek tyrants stayed in power by using mercenary soldiers from outside of their respective city state.
