Origin: In ancient Rome, people clipped the wings of pet birds so that they would not fly away. Therefore, for centuries, people have used the expression 'clip one's wings' to mean bringing someone under control. It originates from the practice of shortening flight feathers of domestic and caged birds in order to prevent flight, and therfore loss of birds. To clip someone's wings means to put in place actions or ideas to calm them down, prevent flightiness, make them settle.

People clip the feathers on one wing of a bird to keep it from flying away - it prevents them from getting enough lift and flying straight, so they stay in one place. If you figuratively clip someone's wings, you keep them from being free to leave.
