[quote=Anonymous]It has everything to do with lazy helicopter parenting. Easier to do for them than to teach/expect them how to do it on their own. Easier to justify and excuse poor behaviors than spend the time on expectations and follow-thru when expectations are not met. Easier to baby/friend them than truly parent them. Easier to keep them home and justify it’s safer to not go to park on their own - and then give them a screen to sit in front of instead. This leads to decrease autonomy, lack of street smarts, low confidence, poor social skills, terrible executive functioning, and no patience or attention to anything around them. All of this leads to lack of empathy, abnormal social behaviors, high anxiety, and depression. [/quote]
