Mental Health Perspectives with Dr. John Huber and Kristin Walker
-----------
You Might Be a Helicopter Parent if…
You only let your child play on playgrounds with shredded rubber mulch.
The first thing you did when your 4th grader came home crying from school because her best friend Jill called her a name is to call Jill’s mom to sort things out yourself.
You have found yourself up at 11pm rewriting your child’s English essay because you know that they could have done a better job if they hadn’t been so tired.
Your 8 year old still has the training wheels on his bike. Not that you let him ride it that often. The sidewalks are dangerous and they go too fast for you to keep up!
You have a bad back from stooping down and following your toddler’s every step.
You get heart palpitations at the thought of letting your child go on a field trip with their class.
Having them help out by preparing dinner or cleaning the house has never crossed your mind. Knives are sharp and the cleaning fluids are too dangerous!
As a Christmas gift you gave your daycare a webcam so you could watch the daily happenings while you are at work.
You and your son are having a meeting with the teacher and when she asks him a question you answer it for him.
Your child didn’t get accepted to his preferred major at college so you call the Chair of the department to negotiate for an exception.
