[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just look at the parent fb groups for almost any college. Helicopter parents are everywhere. But that's not a reason for your child to avoid a school -- they aren't interacting with parents.[/quote] This. That’s where you’ll see such critical questions posed like HOW MANY WASHCLOTHS ARE YOU SENDING WITH YOUR KID? IM THINKING SIX. HOW MANY BRITTA FILTER PITCHERS CAN FIT INTO A DORM FRIDGE? IS IT OK IF THEY JUST SHARE ONE AND REFILL IT MORE FREQUENTLY? Yes, these are two real posts I saw in FB groups. That I ended up leaving. [/quote] Just because parents ask these inane questions doesn’t mean their kids want or accept their help. They will try to force the washcloths and the kids will either not pack them or just not use them. They are highly anxious parents but that doesn’t say much about how their kids actually function.[/quote]
