[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have 3 boys.  I am far far away from a helicopter parent.  My oldest and my youngest are so easy going and do fantastic in school.  My middle one is such an incredible challenge to us.  He questions everything, refuses to do many things we ask, puts minimal effort in school.  He is also the most intelligent out of my 3 kids.  We thought of ourselves as competent, intelligent, supportive parents, but I have had to read more parenting books than I could have ever imagined for my middle child.  Sometimes you get luck and get kids that find it easy to follow rules, other times you get kids that are refuse to accept them.

So true. My own mom went on and on how she raised me and my sister right, grades all As, played piano at a high level, finished college and her sister.... well, she failed because she didn't raise her boys right! And also her other sister failed at raising her kids. But, the truth is my mom got really, really lucky with my sister and me.[/quote]
