[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The thing about parenting is that it’s the parents fundamental right to parent the way they see fit. No one needs to do it the op’s preferred way or anyone else’s. [/quote] You have that right. But don't complain to society when your kid has "failed to launch" on a normal schedule. If you do everything for them all their lives, they won't develop resilience and the ability to do it themselves, or how to deal with not getting everything they want. Nobody wants to work with someone like that---they wont' get a job, and if they do, they won't last very long. So unless your kid has serious ND/Anxiety/learning issues, you are not helping them. Unless your goal is to have them living in your basement and working at McD at age 30, despite having gone to college. [/quote] You have obviously failed to launch. [/quote]
