The World's Strictest Parents (or World's Strictest Parents) is an international television franchise reality series developed by Twenty Twenty with its original broadcast in the United Kingdom by BBC Three. There are also many other international foreign versions (listed below) including an Australian version, a New Zealand version, and a German version titled Die strengsten Eltern der Welt. As well other locales to have locally produced adaptations include Scandinavia, Turkey, and Poland. The series won an International Emmy Award for best Non-Scripted Entertainment.

Since 2013, the official YouTube channel has been uploading small snippet clips from many of the episodes, largely the UK, US and Australian broadcasts: however, these snippets, in some cases, were just whole episodes broken into smaller notable highlights of an episode. As of 2019, this has been extended to entire episodes, starting with the UK version and then moving to the Australian version. These episodes, in some cases, are not complete re-uploads of the broadcast: for example, the rundown of the teens at the beginning has been cut in some cases, depending on the teens who were broadcast in the episode. In addition, censorship has been done with profanity and surnames of certain people. The censorship has taken the form of either blurring the mouth during swearing and surname (if included) or profanity and names being bleeped in the audio tracks. Alongside these edits, the ending credits sequence is not included.
