I would say "Mike had a strict upbringing". Upringing is a noun and it's singular.
How about the following sentences?
1)"John pays a lot of attention to bringing up/raising his children"
OR
2)"John pays a lot of attention to the upbringing of his children"
Or
3)"John pays a lot of attention to upringing his children"
Guess the third one is kind of incorrect and unnatural. What do you think?
