Great Vanessa! It’s true that tea cupping is different from helicoptering and both of these overinvolved styles of parenting are damaging. I have a couple more points to add to the ones you brought up. First of all, children are human beings with their own ideas, thoughts, feelings, dreams and aspirations. They cannot be OWNED, collected, programmed or carted out as trophies in order to enhance the egos of their parents. Our job is to help them to become independent and reach adulthood in one piece. It’s a funny mix of holding on and letting go. If we do our job right, at the end of the day they will love and respect us rather than feeling dependent, insecure or scared of the world. At MamasOnCall.com we help you find that balance with humor, compassion and good advice. Come for a visit.

I think that there is no best way of parenting in this world. But we can make a difference by doing simple things or actions that will make our children feel that no matter what happens, we will be always at their side.

Great article and very true. For ten others see “Parent Tips” at the website. Readers may be especially interested in “Ten Ways to Raise Children to USE Drugs,” and “The ABC’s of Parenting.”
