You seem to be putting her on the hot seat over little. What do you want her to say? No Mom and Dad, Redding and I will go have wild pre-marital sex, no matter what you want. If you like her, enjoy being with her, let things run their course and put her parents out of mind.
Every family is different, but in general when teens are still living at home Mom and Dad make the rules. If you had prior girlfriends with less rules then maybe the parents just were doing their jobs
They were but weren't overly strict nor had the mentality that every guy is a loser that wants sex and that a girl has to wait till marriage only. Even when we broke up, the parents still liked me. They knew that a relationship can work out as well as not work out but had no expectations of anyone staying and marrying their first. I can imagine how patience would a girl be if our mothers kept telling us to watch out for our money and repetitively mentioned about signing a prenup before getting married. Not many girls would like that either.

I didn't expect her to say that to her parents but to be herself with me when it was just the two of us hanging out.

You are too young to appreciate it now, but one day you will look back and realize what a gem she was for actually respecting her parents enough to follow their rules and allow them to guide and mentor her.
All young girls should be so lucky as to have the kind of parents she does.

Although i agree with you, at the age of 20, she should be able to make the choice of who she dates on her own. As long as she is under their house though (if the parents don't like him) they can say they don't want him in the house, but thats about it. They can't force her to stop seeing him.

She's 19, not 20, and as long as she lives with her parents and they pay for her food, clothing and college tuition they most certainly can give her certain rules to live by.
Basically, their house, their money, their rules.
