    I had to look up the term "Helicopter Parenting" – thank you wikipedia. Pop the bubble and let the kid run into a wall now and then. We learn though our mistakes.

      If you’re interested in discovering your parenting style based on the latest research, please check out the Parenting Style Application by Signal Patterns on Parenting.com.

      The underlying model developed by our team of psychologists reveals an underlying complexity far richer than just ‘strict’ or ‘relaxed’ classifications.

      And what’s particularly interesting is that you can take the test for a spouse and see where potential conflicts might lie and get advice on how to deal w/them. You can also compare results to your friends’.

                I absolutely love your article. I have a 12 year old son and will soon have a newborn son in August. I have been diligent in balancing my concern and confidence for my child and its proved to raise a very well adjusted, confident, and happy young man. Sheltering even with the best intentions will only hinder your childs development and prevents a real sense of trust in your parents when they discover the truth! Be honest to your children, and they will be honest with you. Peace and love.
