Best Reasons To Avoid Over Parenting - What You Need To Know

By Marty Wind


You can probably thank all the experts over the years for the rise of over parenting. Preventing kids from experiencing some things in life that are not really harmful is what happens. This phenomena was likely the result of times past when children on the whole were being neglected or there was not enough intervention. You really have to try and figure out if you're over parenting, and here are some tips to help you do that.

The first thing we would like to look at is the tendency of parents to force their children to participate in too many extracurricular activities that go far beyond going to school. You can find these problems in virtually every activity, including sports and even learning how to draw. If parents are competitive by nature, this can turn into a giant fiasco. This can be seen at children's sports events when parents get into screaming matches or even brawls with coaches, umpires or other parents.

If you're wondering how you may be over parenting, just ask yourself if you have pushed your child into learning something they really had no interest in. Maybe your kid is doing some sport that he or she is only doing because you pressured them into. So this is something that is definite over parenting, and your kid may be reluctant to say something because they know it's what you want. Avoid destroying your kid's sense of personal independence by forcing something unwanted on him or her.

If your kids are like the rest, they have some small collection of handheld devices that are all over the market place. We've seen news stories of kids getting kidnapped and even murdered by people they met online.

You just need to not be a helicopter parent if you want your kids to grow up healthy, well-balanced and self-assured. Over parenting is a very recent phenomena that the wealthy, or at least a well-off, seem to have created on their own.

No matter what you do, if you're over parenting you are only protecting them from one kind of risk factor. So you'll need to find a way to breakout from being that kind of parent. Getting some sound professional advice can be a good option if you're not sure how to approach a workable solution. Getting to that most ideal point will take time and practice, and you may have to revamp how you approach these things.
