How to stop being a helicopter parent
Step back a bit so that your child has some space to explore, learn. 
Tolerate distress – allow your child to navigate the stress of the situation and figure things out.

Set healthy boundaries. 
Talk to a therapist to uncover your patterns. Helicopter Parenting, Learn From Mistakes, Helicopter Parent, Parent Involvement, Parenting Plan, Setting Healthy Boundaries, Mom Stuff, Helping Hand, Parents As Teachers

Helicopter parenting has its effects on both children and parents. It's a natural instinct to protect and guide your children, but too much control can limit their ability to learn from mistakes and develop resilience. 🧡
