Responsibility for one's own child is a reasonable and balanced position. The desire to protect the child from all life situations is a complex caused by fears of the subconscious. Where is the fine line between adequate reaction and excessive care? Psychologists distinguish five main - "controlling" signs, characteristic of manifestations of hyperope. Visual control - parents do not let the child out of sight for a second, constantly watching his movements. Hygienic - continuous disinfection of surrounding objects. Household supervision - total subordination of the living space to the interests of the child: blocking devices on doors and drawers, locks and appliances - "baby monitors". Social boundaries - a constant choice of the circle of communication, format and duration of games.
But the worst kind of hyperopeak is, of course, psychological control, often exceeding the permissible limits - an extensive system of prohibitions provokes a child's development of infantilism, increased anxiety, suppressed aggression and neurosis. The ability to dose care is the most important skill of the parent's conscious responsibility.
