Thanks M.P. for the article - I hadn't seen it. Glad you liked what I had to say.
The article is For 'helicopter parents,' the urge to protect spins out of control by Sheryl Berk and some thoughts I had on the topic.
Lots of clients deal with the issue. How much is too much?
Living in NYC post-9/11 there is heightened anxiety over safety issues. Many parents are concerned about their children getting the best education they can. Some worry that their children aren't socializing the way they should be. The pressure from other parents and their children's progress can feel overwhelming. There are lots of reasons that parents today are concerned. What is too much? When does concern turn to stifling? When does "being there" become hovering?
