[QUOTE="Heuristics, post: 1251493, member: 14706"] I was a victim of blue pill parenting. Or helicopter parenting whatever you want to call it. I hate calling myself a victim by the way. Anyway, maybe I talked about this particular topic on the ghosting thread. Basically my parents raising me determined that I was never to fail, and they would always try to bail me out, rather than letting me fail, or me failing, then coming to them for help or advise. That was hugely constraining on my personal development. My father had his balls chopped off, and his entire goal was to basically to get me into the best university possible for my whole under 18 life. My dad did not have any friends because my mom wouldn’t let him. My mom ran the house, the finances, had a job, and micromanaged my life. I remember fucking playdates, and never getting any opportunity to hang out with my peers unsupervised, etc. My mom would also go to friends parents and ask if they had a gun in the house, if it was secured, if a parent would be at the house all the time too. I think she would background check them as well. Hell, my mom would run periodic checks on my dad too. Fucking stifling man. I got to college finally got a bit of independence but my parents were always fucking showing up at my school, and calling me daily which I think is excessive in a lot of ways. The amount of freedom I got by going to a uni away from my parents was overwhelming and I coped poorly. Anyway, I think I have a lot in common with my millennial brethren. I don’t have to worry about loans, but still feels like an uphill battle being a millennial because of all these outdated boomer attitudes about how the world worked in the 70s. [/QUOTE]
