My parents were very strict on me and my sisters. One of my sisters is very strict with her daughters.
Why? Well, protection mostly. My parents wanted me to keep my head on straight. They didn't want me getting into bad situations or going out with boys all the time. They wanted me to focus on my education, so that I could get a good job. I rebelled, of course, but I only did so if I knew I wasn't sacrificing what they wanted me to value.
And it all worked. I waited until a later age to have sex versus risking pregnancy or disease in high school. I focused on my education and ended up getting my Master's degree. I have a good job. And I'm happy.
I can't thank my parents enough for doing their job and keeping me in line!

My parents were really strict on me. I really do not think it was good for me. I joined the military and went buck wild.

I was very strict on my daughter. I just believe there are boundaries that don't need to be crossed. I taught her to come home from school and do her homework 1st. 2nd were chores . Then came play time. That is how it was done and now she is in college and is very organized and responsible.

Short answer ....because they care.
If they didn't they would let you run and be the wild child.....they want the best for you even if you don't yet see it through your inexperienced eyes.
You will one day......
