Yeah well this is going to sound a bit unexpected but I would be a hell of a helicopter parent because of all all the sa and molestation stories I've heard throughout all my life and because of what I've been through myself, I'd let her go to those birthday parties. I just be watching her like a hawk. I would never approve of the sneaking out, I co......   1 reply

Yeah and the outcomes are negative. Doing that to your child will make them very vulnerable and or too dependant to become independent, basically they won't know anything about the real world if that keeps happening. 16yo is an age where someone starts to make their own decisions cus that's the age of someone soon to go to college. Dropping them at......   reply

She's a little over protective for her sake. That child is doomed for failures and bullying. I'm a parent of two beautiful children and I let them explore and learn their lessons. It's apart of life and making them grow up, making sure they're prepared for the world and that their mama will always be here for them.   1 reply

As a woman and an older sister. I understa d being incredibly protective of children bc of everything that's going on rn. You can never know who you can trust, and I can understand why her parents may be strict. But I also think it's excessive. Not having friends over nor getting to hang out with them? They're teens, they need a little bit of freed......   reply

I just want to say, I’ve been in this type of situation before. If you want to intervene you better be committed. This isn’t going to be easy like let’s talk about this over tea type of situation, especially if it’s a helicopter parent as intense as you’re describing. If you’re going to be the person who steps up to say something you be......   reply

So this is just my opinion, its definitely not good for her to be this distant(i dont know if she has an illness or something else that would require her to be around them but it doesnt sound like it) Firstly its ofcourse not good for her social life, it will also not be good for her mental heath if she wants to do different things but is like "cau......   1 reply

As someone who was raised in the same way this way of parenting IS TERRIBLE and it will harm the person later in the life a great deal. Because of my parents I can hardly depend on myself now I have terrible mental health issues and I can’t communicate with people at all. I don’t think you can help her tbh parents are usually convinced they kno......   reply
