What does tough love mean?

It's when the parents or guardians of a young person allow that person to experience the natural consequences of their actions, even though they may be harsh ones. For example, if the parents say "If you're not home by midnight, we're locking the door and turning out the lights," and they actually do that, locking the kid out for the night, that would be "tough love."
