I'm not a hovering or a helicopter mom, but I do have self-awareness. I'm aware that right now, I'm speaking as a mom of a 4yo and a 6yo who are healthy, doing very well in school and in preschool, and who are well-behaved. I am aware that I might be struggling when I'm a mom of older kids/tweens/teens, when my kids have issues and challenges that I cannot yet anticipate. [/quote]

Well, as we've learned, if you suffocate them with your love, ambitions and anxiety, they will have issues and challenges.[/quote]

Based on your attitude here, I can forcast that your self-righteous attitude, your lack of humility and self-awareness, and the way you relish other people's challenges and pain are going to make you a difficult mom to live with in the older elementary/tween/teen years and beyond.[/quote]

THIS x 1000. Get ready lady. It’s gonna be a bumpy ride. Eventually, one of the bumps will knock the smugness right out of you. [/quote]
