I used to have the rotors whirring ready to scramble at a moment's notice before my DD was skipped and what some call helicoptering I call advocacy.

Post skip a lot of my DD's issues throttled down a few notches and now she is in middle school we are encouraging her to self advocate.

As for coddling, sensitivity training in my house means teaching how not to be overly sensitive and grow thicker skin LOL

Become what you are
