Helicopter parents

[Jawanomics]

Can you guys explain this better because seems like an American term but properly makes me lol. It does cause us to be aspie as well.

My mom always worried and would tell me everything causes cancer and to be sterile...riding my bike, using a phone, eating any food, too much exercise. Would try and talk me into having days off school when I was fine.

Oh. She would tidy my room and still does even though I don't live with her...no curfews etc but would always cook, clean and wash for me up until 25.

Moved out at 25 and have no motivation to tidy my room or wash my clothes...only wash underwear and gym clothes

The worst traits of a helicopter parent are

-employing early cerfews
-not allowing you to go hang out or party with friends
-freaking out if there's a possibility that you are involved romantically/sexual with someone
-always worries about you being on drugs
-the rare nights that you do go out they call you constantly

Legit, you don't even get a shot at having a normal childhood were you develop socially with your peers.

I don't doubt that most of the guys here had helicopter parents.

Feel bad for you guys.

I grew up with the opposite of helicopter parents, let's call them fighter jet parents.

BRB could do whatever I pretty much wanted.
