The current study will examine the effect of helicopter parenting on college students’ psychosocial outcomes, such as self-esteem and self-esteem. Helicopter parenting is commonly defined as parental over-involvement to their children’s live, which can negatively affect children’s self-esteem and self-efficacy since helicopter parenting, in general, is argued as not developmentally appropriate parenting for young adult children. The study uses about 208 undergraduate students at one of major universities in southern region in the U.S. The current study aims to examine the link between helicopter parenting and college students’ self-esteem and self-efficacy, which are critical for developing positive and healthy identity during adolescence and emerging adulthood.
