Yes Jayanta I too believe that keeping them in closed circle of safety will make them weak, which in turn is not good for their future. Parents should understand this, should take a lesson from the birds.

Parenting itself means protection.. So it's Good...

 

Over protective parenting could be making strong statements and not letting child grow as he/she should be.. which turns out to be BAD.. but again that depends on HOW it is being done..

People hardly have time for parenting now a days.. so I find this question not much relevant..

Cheers!

Overprotection in some ways may be viewed a restraint to the natural development of intellectual Quotient in a child which is a 'must have' at that age to reap heavy dividents at a later age..

I agree with Sheetal.The closed circle of safety impedes their growth. At the same time,parents have to watch their movements and guide them when they need it most. On the other,Nabanita 's view is purely on the premise of pre-emption.

Thanks Sheetal for referral.

Over protective parents may lead to over dependent children which in a way is detriment to the child's growth and development. Yes, in the initial few years of the child, it is necessary to protect them beyond what is required, but once the child reaches 15-16 years, being over protective tend to harm rather than build on the child's overall personality development.

In China, children are left to survive the tough boarding schools at a very tender age of 13 years where they learn the discipline of life hammered into them throughout the day. Some drop out, while others survive to graduate from the school taking along with them the crux of life that they are ready to face.

Bring the child out of the comfort zone at a very early age so that he can bring comfort to you before you realize. Give him that confidence at a very early age to lead his life so that you can lead your life happily thereafter.

Take the overprotectiveness of parents to species other than humans? What happens is that the offspring are incapable of fending for themselves or are tenative/indecisive which very often is fatal in the harsh environment of the wild. Now transpose the analogy to humans and you can well understand the effect of over-protectiveness here. Quod Erat Demonstrandum (Q.E.D.)

Definitely over parenting is not healthy for children.Parents if always try to direct children, the inborn qualities cannot be developed which will not support them in future life.Other part is sometimes children getting irritated, may start refusing parents directives and go in wrong way of life.

Every parent wants to give everything best to their child & sometimes in the process of caring / care taking they are become over protective, which is bad for the self dependency & progress of the child. I support your views, Ms. Sheetal & Mr.Jayanta & thanks for referral.

Jayanta, I'm one with you! In my view, its a reflection of one's own self-image, after all, the children inherit one or many of the parents' characteristics and traits!

The heart of the matter is ...how safe you keep your children and how happy you feel about yourself. The key is to remain vigilant and calm .Some of the symptoms of over-protective parenting are spending most moments with children in a state of mild panic ,constantly expecting the worst-case scenario and emotional breakdown when the child disobeys.....That was my view but what is yours???

Being the best daughter of my parents,i say that over protective is the best way to keep their children safe.The parents should always keep away from those whose parents are not at all over protective with their children and its the duty of the parents to spend most of the moments with their children now a days.Vigilant and Calm is not the key in this century................

being a student my self and graduated this year i was always annoyed that my parents where over-protective but now i know why. Seeing friends i grew up with becoming chain smokers and drinkers now i can thank my parents to be a little too nagging. It was for me in the end that they were worried about.
