too much love

There are some parents that will always help their children stay out of trouble, no matter how old they are. Their love and worry for their children may influence their children's future. I wonder if they ever think about what this may cause.

Too much worry can sometimes be a bad thing. In the story "All the years of her life" Alfred's mother worried about him too much and didn't let him deal with the troubles he got into by himself. She always hurried to help him, because after all, she didn't want her son to go to jail.
This caused her to feel helpless because Alfred continued to make mistakes and still she helped him time after time.

Parents, who consistently hurry to help their children stay out of trouble don’t necessarily know that they may prevent them from becoming independent. It may even cause them to become spoiled and dependent. It pays to have a balance between love and worry to avoid overdepedance.

In conclusion, most parents love their children and want the best for them. However, sometimes loving someone too much, even your own child, can have a negative effect.
