In my time it was not uncommon to be 16one To interrave, and give a sign of life once a week from a telephone booth. When my own child grew up, I checked facilities on his iPhone through the set location where he hung, but I quickly stopped again because I think teenagers should be able to fumble themselves.

Get a story

And that is now completely different, our children who have managerial positions in the hospitality industry tell them and are regularly called by parents who get that story because their child is too often scheduled or got his thunder because he makes a game of his part -time job. “Sometimes parents themselves come to the job interview.”

Dissolve problems

Curling parents, helicopter parents or snow plow parents, as they are called, prefer to solve all the problems of their children. To the great annoyance of teachers, they belong to the alswasje on the bell, follow their child’s school performance every day through Magister, interfere with everywhere on the sports field and therefore have even ’embraced’ the side job of their child.

“When is your task on it?”

I think that parents should ask themselves much earlier when their task is on it as a worries. It is of course well -intentioned, but it can never be the intention to sit on the lip like that? It is not a higher mathematics that it is not conducive to the development of a child to always have to meet the high demands of your parents. And then we don’t even talk about all those teachers who sigh under the yoke of those nagging helicopter parents.

Do you also think that children should be released earlier or are extremely involved parents a blessing? Mail your response to [email protected].
