Liked the article. I have six kids and have told them all that my job was to teach them to leave home. My wife was horrified when she first heard me say it. As a career executive in the corporate world I have seen those who parents made every decision for them and covered for them. They are absolutely incapable of assuming managerial responsibility becasue after all, they can’t manage their own lives much less manage in the work environment. and this article would only be “confusing” to those who rationalized their actions. You cant “protect” your child from everything, you have to teach them to protect themselves. You can’t be with them 24/7.
