How much is too much when it comes to helping a college-age child? Colleges, and specifically financial aid administrators, can create a culture of autonomy to help students become more resilient, self-confident, and independent. We'll explore the impact of over-parenting on college campuses, offer guidance on finding a balance between respecting a parent’s need to be involved and supporting a student’s right to grow up, and provide examples of what some schools are doing to address helicopter parenting problems.
Specific topics include:
• Identifying characteristics of a helicopter parent
• Strategies to help parents "let go"
• Share tips and tools for schools
