“…The word “intrusion” is not alien to Indian parenting. In terms of helicopter parenting, the adolescents perceive their parents to be in control of the adolescent's life (De Jonge, 2021). Literature reiterates that teenagers in South Asian countries tend to be complacent with what their parents tell them to do.…”

In this study, we develop a new scale for measuring helicopter parenting of teenagers in India using a sample of 425 teenage students (aged 13–17 years) in the New Delhi education system. The Minor Teen Helicopter Parenting Scale consists of two validated factors of helicopter parenting we label: Pressure and Intrusion. Both factors demonstrated high validity through factor analysis procedures and high levels of reliability (0.804 and 0.709, respectively). Both pressure and intrusion were associated with academic performance and well-being outcomes. Both factors were an improvement over the Helicopter Parenting Scale (HPS) for this age group. Analysis of the HPS did not yield an acceptable reliability (0.422) for these teenagers under the age of 18. Pressure was more related academic performance and school-related outcomes. Intrusion was more associated with general well-being, self-reported health, and happiness. Results suggest the new measure with two subscales is a more age-appropriate tool for assessing helicopter parenting in parents of children not yet in the college or university life stage. Implications for these findings are discussed and future research is considered.

“…Some parents who overparent are also responsible parents, but not all involved parents over parent. Despite of these definitional aspects, research evidence repeatedly suggests that parental overinvolvement in children's lives promotes unhealthy progress (Combs et al, 2003;Day & Padilla-Walker, 2009;Joussemet et al, 2008;Padilla-Walker & Nelson, 2012;Pomerantz et al, 2007) and is associated with poor mental health outcomes including greater depression and anxiety (Hong & Cui, 2020;Lythcott-Haims, 2015;Schiffrin et al, 2014), low levels of psychological wellbeing (Cui et al, 2019;Hong & Cui, 2020;LeMoyne & Buchanan, 2011;Reed et al, 2016;Schiffrin et al, 2014, Wieland &Kucirka, 2019, and poor problem-solving skills (Luebbe et al, 2018). Similarly, helicopter parenting has also been found to be associate with poor academic achievement, lowered general self-esteem, problematic peer relationships, and greater interpersonal reliance (Odenweller et al, 2014;Schiffrin et al, 2014;Van et al, 2015).…”

Research has demonstrated that helicopter parenting has adverse effects on the psychological well-being of youth. Consolidated Helicopter Parenting Scale (Schiffrin et al., 2019) is a reliable and valid scale for assessing helicopter parenting, however, this scale is not available in Urdu language. Hence, the objective of this research was to translate and validate this measure. This objective was achieved in two phases where in Phase I, the scale was translated into Urdu language using Brislin's (1980) guideline. In Phase 2, validity was examined using a sample of 480 young people with an age range between 16-22 years (M = 18.6, SD = 1.60) with equal number of male and female participants using purposive and convenient sampling technique. The translated version showed greater internal consistency and confirmatory analysis provided a good fit of the model to the data reflecting upon the valid factor structure of the scale on a Pakistani sample. Overall, findings demonstrated that this is a valid and reliable tool and therefore, would improve further assessment of this parenting style in Pakistani sample.

Tipe parenting tersebut merupakan tipe yang mungkin terjadi dimasa pandemi ini dikarenakan orang tua terlalu menekankan kontrol yang berlebihan (Ashdown & Faherty, 2015;Bradley-Geist & Olson-Buchanan, 2014).

Padahal di masa pandemi ini yang dibutuhkan adalah kemampuan untuk mandiri, kreatif, memecahkan masalah dan juga gigih dalam mengerjakan tugas-tugas meski tidak di awasi oleh orang tua atau guru.…”
