Stuff that made the cut…. Filed under Life Lessons. On August 1, 2010 at 4:12 pm. One huge problem I see with the “Helicopter Mom” generation (kids who have grown up with parents smoothing away all the bumps in life for them), is that when something does finally happen and the mom/dad is not there to protect the kid…the child just cannot handle it! There were always such behaviors in teen, right? Is it on the rise? And from families where the parents tried really hard to be “good” parents? I recently had...
