Babies: 6 - 9 Months

Hi, my name is Robs, and I am a Helicopter Mom.

I have become the mother I swore I would never become.  I am a Helicopter mom.  I hover.  I worry.  I watch like a hawk.  I need to get a grip because my girls will kill me in the future.

Is anyone else like this?

What do you do to ease your worries so you can stop hovering?

  • I find drinking helps.

  • I'm such a helicopter mom that my other mom friends make fun of me.  But then again, I've never had my kid hurt themselves like they all have.

    I also have germaphobe tendencies, which don't help with the hovering.  I suppose I need to get over them, but easier said than done!

  • What motivates me to not be a helicopter parent is being raised by one. Because of my helicopter parents I was so nervous as a child and afraid to try new things. I was always fearful of getting hurt so I was overly cautious and didnt have as much fun as my friends did.

    My kid had a shiner last week from running and falling on concrete. Didnt bother me. I'm glad for him to get bumps and bruses. I dont want him to be raised the way I was.

  • Have another kid.  When you have 2 you don't have enough eyes to be a helicopter to both of them so you say screw it, whoever is in the most "danger" at that moment will get my attention the other is playing at their own risk.

  • Shots and pot.

    jk. Both are too many points or money or both. Mainly I kill orcs.

    Tastes like fake strawberry (kind of a chemical taste). I'll stick to purple haze or shiner ruby red.
