How hands on they are depends on the family...I am just guessing here...but I do know more than one female Japanese exchange student that was told not come back to Japan with a boyfriend.
I wouldn't know something like that, but maybe I can get one of my female friends to try to ask some questions to her for me. She does seem like she comes from a very respectable family, she is different to other Japanese girls and more refined (very polite, less 'kawai' attitude and always dresses in a dignified manner).

I can understand that some parents would say that, I know people from other countries that have parents like that.

I think the only way I will know is when I ask her... I really hope her parents aren't like that.
