[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to let your kids grow up and make their ownistakes to learn from. You cannot be a helicopter mom when they are off at college eventhough I'm sure many if you will try to. You will just push your kids away. Life us life and it's hard... You have to learn sometime.[/quote] I was far from a helicopter mom. Setting reasonable limits and allowing freedom in approprpiate increments is being a parent. Too many parents today are trying to be buddies. Of course, it's easier to just say, "Go have unchaperoned fun for a week." FWIW, my daughter went to a large university 8 hours away from our home, so we weren't "helicoptering" around the campus![/quote]
