Outrageous Parenting Styles

(February 21, 2013)

Amy says sheΓÇÖs a ΓÇ£psycho, over-protective momΓÇ¥ of five children, ages 4 to 20, and worries that her behavior could be crippling her kidsΓÇÖ development. She admits to flossing her 20-year-old daughter's teeth, trimming her 15-year-old's toe nails and doing her children's homework for them. Amy says sheΓÇÖs just trying to prevent her kids from being hurt or disappointed ΓÇö but is she really just setting them up for failure? AmyΓÇÖs son, Robert, 15, says heΓÇÖs suffering in school because his mom wonΓÇÖt let him do his own homework, and he doesnΓÇÖt even know what heΓÇÖs good at, because she does everything for him. Can Amy learn to take a step back and allow her kids to become independent? 

Dr. Phil warns parents that success-only parenting doesnΓÇÖt work. ΓÇ£If you never let [your children] face adversity, when they do, theyΓÇÖre likely to not know how to adapt. DonΓÇÖt spoil your kids to the point where they never get knocked down. YouΓÇÖll be sorry if you do,ΓÇ¥ he says.
