[QUOTE="bluebell, post: 623423, member: 16761"] Bits, I also have a good friend who is a helicopter mom. We've known and worked with each other since before kids. I always thought her daughter would go 'off the reservation' because of all the meddling and coddling but she is a total easy child, junior in private school, cheerleader, straight A's - the works. Don't get me wrong- I'm totally thrilled she hasn't taken the same path as difficult child, but I'm not sure our parenting has as much influence as we think it does. difficult child has always been difficult and I would not have that box of books in the attic with titles like 'parenting the strong willed child' if I just had my daughter. I do wish that I had the resources to give my easy child daughter the same opportunities that friends daughter had but that's another post- maybe even another forum!
