Chinese-style overindulgence 中国式溺爱 (zhong guo shi ni ai)

A recent report says the mother of a 26-year-old married woman not only helps put on her socks, but also walks her to the bus stop every morning. This is a typical example of Chinese-style overindulgence.

Apart from teaching their children the basic lessons of life, parents should also teach them the necessary skills to survive. Parents can make their children over-dependent on them if they help them with all their everyday work. By doing so, they can also make their children feel helpless in their future life.
