We've all heard of helicopter parenting, but today I offer a new spin on the concept by framing it in a way that allows our kids to be the main character in their lives. I also talk about what research says about helicopter parenting as kids get older and why slowly moving away is best for their longterm development. Lastly, I offer a bit of advice and some tips on living in the moment and having a little fun. Happy Mother's Day weekend, friends.
