Over protective parents raise the worst kids because they don’t create the space for their kids to confide in them. They have successfully created a huge gap between them and their kids such that their kids cannot and will not tell them anything. The kids tend to do whatever it is they do in secrecy just because “mom and dad won’t be happy with it”. The tight restriction they place on their kids tend to break loose when their kids go to college, they will be on their on outside the tentacles of their parents. Then, they have all the space and freedom to do whatever without anyone asking them why.
Overprotective parenting is very harmful for the development of the child. In some cases children lose their confidence and become dependent on their parents for small things. In other cases they start hiding things from their parents and get more influenced by their peers. No matter whether they are right or wrong. Coz they feel suffocated by their parents behaviour. Parents should attend some counselling sessions for better parenting techniques and to improve themselves. They should give appropriate freedom to their children so that children can become responsible and confident. Children should have their own space and time. Parents should trust and support their child’s decision. Guide the children, don’t impose the decisions on them . These all will help the children to become a better person and parents to become a better guardian, mentor and above all a wonderful parent.
