All the fucking time. I hated it, and I have issues with trust now as an adult because of it. I'm super protective of my space, in so much that it takes a while to even let a partner in to my bedroom. My parents were constantly going through my things, looking for anything they could punish me for. I was raised super religious and they had it in their head that all teenagers hide porn, booze, and weed. When they never found any, they just looked more. It was a fucking nightmare. I moved out of there as soon as I could, literally into a closet where I slept next to the water heater. Anything to get out of that house.
It is not normal, and you need to have boundaries. The whole "it's my house and my rules" is bullshit. You are a human being and should be treated like one.
