[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I was 21, I had a boyfriend who would help me for everything. I had a college roommate who didn’t have a boyfriend. She also relied on her parents a lot but they lived in a different country. I clearly remember the mom telling her it was ok to rely on them and not to rely on a boyfriend. I remember feeling offended at the time. Now that I have a daughter, I absolutely 100% would rather her call me or Dh for help for anything. 21 is college age. He is allowed to be there for his daughter if she needs him.[/quote] 21 one is adult for most people a year from graduation . If by that stage in life you can't figure out dental appointments how to replace lost books without calling in your parents or a boyfriend your parents have failed you. Good parenting is not about doing everything for and making everything easy for your kids. This learned helplessness is making people anxious and depressed. [/quote]
