[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 460857, member: 6705"] Ya know... I do occasionally sit on the sofa and share chips with the kids. Just 'cause I do this, doesn't mean I'm a bad parent. I think the stereotype exists for a reason - don't they all? - but the biggest thing here is - there are awful teachers, awful parents, and some pretty awful kids. Add in the odd awful school administrator and things get ugly real quick. It's been my experience that most teachers do what they do because they love it, and they want to make a difference. There are some bad apples. But... Most parents love their kids... No matter how they show it... And want the best for them... And most kids want to be good... So. This article pretty much took all the so-called helicopter parents and lumped them together... [/QUOTE]
