Overprotective parents

What are your opinions about overprotective parents? Why do they feel the need to be overprotective? Is this good or harmful for the kids? Is there a limit and what is that limit? What if the kids don't mind their overprotective parents? Should they mind?

Depends on how over protective they are. If you are talking about the extreme where they set up a life schedule like by 9 you need to sleep, by 25 you have to get married or something like that then obviously it’ll be a bit risky. I feel like the parents would be like this if they view the society in a mainly negative way or have experienced something bad when they were a child. If the child don’t mind it might be coz they agree with their parents view then I guess it might make everything easier since being over protective doesn’t mean physical harm at least but the child should be exposed to society sometime soon rather than shelter their whole life
