Are You A Helicopter Parent?

from Healthy Kids Zone

As parents, we always want to make sure we give our children the attention they need, but too much attention could have a negative affect. Are you too involved in your child’s life in a way that is overcontrolling, overprotecting, and overperfecting? Do you select your children’s friends and activities for them? You might be a Helicopter Parent. Dr. Cindy Gellner talks about why helicopter parenting happens, the consequences and ways to avoid being a helicopter parent.
