New Study Shows The Link Between Helicopter Parenting and Behavioural Problems
A new study from the Developmental Psychology Journal has found a new link between helicopter parenting and the behavioural problems among kids, including depression, anxiety and loneliness. For those who are not familiar with the term, helicopter parenting is when a parent pays extremely close attention to a child’s experience, especially around schooling, to the point where they hover above them to see how they’re performing. So how ethical is helicopter parenting and should they try it anyway?
Brett Ryan, the CEO of Focus On The Family Australia joins us on The Daily to talk about this.
