One can also wonder about the cause & effect. Foxdie! is assuming that these kids are incompetent because their parents are overinvolved. I wonder if perhaps it’s the other way around: the parents are overinvolved because the kids are incompetent! Perhaps it’s just the way the kids are wired. And this would certainly explain the large number of kids with involved parents who turn out just fine.
