[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know a super coddled kid who is an extremely successful adult. So coddled that their parents flew to our college town once a month to help them manage term papers (often doing them) and do all of their laundry. They then got into a top 5 law school and I assume the parents continued the same level of support. They are what appears to be a very successful lawyer in their hometown. I know others who were very coddled and continue to get that treatment even though they have kids of their own. Their parents are doing school dropoff and pickup, making dinner, and doing weekend childcare. The adult children are thriving- who wouldn’t with that level of additional help?[/quote] There is a kid on my child’s sports team whose mom is her child’s personal driver and chef. The mom loves to drive her son around. The boy is 18 but is treated like a 6 year old with how the mom tells him to eat, go to bed, etc.[/quote]
