[quote=Anonymous]I would guess DD is a first child or only child. I have a friend who was a perpetual "safety mom" to her daughter and it never ended. The daughter is now grown. It has had a negative impact on her as she carries all of the anxieties and fears of her mother into her own life and internalized it all. She internalized the safety stuff, but it generalized to everything else in life. She only does things she can be sure to succeed at, and even with those, she has a hard time jumping in. Caution, caution, caution. There isn't a lot of joy when caution is your first response. The driving issue sounds like a control issue presented as a safety issue. Don't get into that kind of tug-of-war over your daughter with your MIL. [/quote]
