[quote=Anonymous]I’ve been giving my kids money to go up to booths at farmers markets to buy something alone (while I watched from a distance) since they were 5. These social interactions need to be happening throughout their childhood. Parents need to stop helicoptering then wondering why their child can’t function as a teen/young adult. This may not be your case OP, but either way, yes she needs help. A friend of mine is a camp nurse and she said the number of adolescents taking anti depressants and anti anxiety meds is astounding.
