I just don't understand what precipitated this phenomenon--and to even hear them mention 9/11 as an excuse for so-called helicoptering is a cop-out. Surely these parents were not raised in the same way? Or was it because they were raised in neglected homes, which made them want to pay TOO much attention to their kids, to not be like their own parents? Or is it because it's mostly the moms freaking out, and most of them have too much money and nothing else to do with their time than to over-involve themselves in their children's lives?
