[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You think your niece and nephew didn’t go away to college because they never went to sleep away camp? That’s not a thing.[/quote] They didn’t go on any overnight experiences growing up- any kind of school trip, camp, sleepover, etc. Very sheltered. [/quote] Ha ha yea, but you’re not judging their parents. Right. [/quote] I am judging the parents. I think they sheltered them to the point of being fearful to experience life and hindered their potential. [/quote] Yea, but in your examples, it's hard to tell if it's the child or parent pushing for the "sheltered" experience. Are the kids shy, introverted? If the kids are independent and advocate for themselves in other ways, then parents are doing fine.[/quote]
