Parenting is no walk in the park. You're responsible for keeping another human being alive, and helping them grow into the best possible version of themselves.

One of the ultimate goals is to ensure your little one becomes an independent, kind, emotionally stable, and responsible adult who can stand on their own two feet and contribute positively to society. But that's not necessarily going to happen if you hover around them 24/7 and interfere in every aspect of their daily life, decisions and battles. There's a name for that behavior: Helicopter parenting. And from what we can gather, it's more common than many might think.
