Often teachers feel caught between supporting students’personal growth and parental expectations of students’ academic achievement. Certain practices can be developed and implemented at a classroom and school level that can help parents and students. Developing student skills in areas of personal autonomy and self-control is helpful. Creating parent-teacher and student-teacher partnerships can support student growth and may mitigate the negative effects of helicopter parenting.  \nParental involvement is generally believed to be beneficial for aiding schools in meeting the goals of education (Robinson & Harris, 2014) . While parents’ involvement helps children to develop relationships with educators and peers (Cheung, 2019), and encourages development by explaining expectations and offering strategies for academic success (George Mwangi et al. , 2019), there are questions about how much involvement is too much. As a high school teacher, I understand the benefits of parental involvement in the lives of students. Teachers can establish certain practices at a school level and at a classroom level that can support the parent in adopting a positive level of involvement and the student in mitigating the effects of helicopter parenting.  \nThe Threat to Well-being, Skill Development, and Academics  \nThere is a difference between beneficial parental involvement and parental overinvolvement, which has a negative effect on student well-being and academic outcomes (Darlow et al. , 2017) . Over-involved and controlling parents – helicopter parents – risk creating an unhealthy environment for their children’s academic growth and compromising their children's well-being. These children also lack the skills needed for autonomy. Educators often contribute to the effects of helicopter parenting in their communication and use of technology. This is concerning for high school teachers as we work with parents to prepare students for success in academics and in life.  \nParents want what is best for their children; however, they may lack knowledge in how their involvement could have a positive or negative influence on their children’s education. Many scholars argue about which mode of involvement would have the desired positive effect on academic achievement (Robinson & Harris, 2014) . Controlling involvement has a negative effect on intrinsic motivation (Fan & Williams, 2010) . Helicopter parents unwittingly contribute to a decline in students’ intrinsic motivation with controlling practices such as rules for maintaining a certain grade point average, which encourages students to develop a performance goal orientation. While parents are attempting to do what is best, their involvement may be misguided.  \nParental over-involvement has a negative effect of the well-being of children. Helicopter parenting impedes the growth of coping mechanisms, which leads children to feel a lack of control in their own lives (Darlow et al. , 2017) . I have seen the unfortunate effects of helicopter parenting in many of my high school students. These parents place high priorities on grades, but not necessarily on learning. As such, to ensure success, many want to complete tasks belonging to their children themselves (Darlow et al. , 2017) . This type of behaviour restricts, controls, and lessens the self-control of the child (Love et al. , 2020) . While they may have  \nobtained the desired academic outcome, students may have sacrificed personal growth to accomplish it.  \nDeveloping skills to be successful is an important part of adolescence, and if parents are over-involved their children often lack skills needed for autonomy (Darlow et al. , 2017) .
