Personally i think its not only about british parents. lol
Hated that when I was younger. Started to receive letters and my parents assumed it was fine for them to read it. Luckily when i got older they stopped.
I’ve never had that experience, sounds like paranoia/invasive parenting at its finest.
Just a mom thing, not a British one.
Mom: Why did you get a bong delivered?
Me: Hellooo, mom, it’s obviously a lamp, duuh.
Nope. Not in my family. No one I know of opens another’s mail.
I’m so grateful that my mum isn’t like this. Sure, sometimes she’ll ask what I’ve ordered or what my letter is about when I open it but she’d never demand an answer and will take ‘none of your business’ as an answer.

Get better parents lol.
That was my mother, she stopped when my ex boy friend sent me a letter telling me how much he missed me (and a load of really good sex stuff he was missing) and accidentally outed me.
