Whether a parent is overprotective is a difficult question to answer.

Who determines how much protection is necessary? The parents.

A particular parent may be more protective than my opinion he or she should be, but what does that matter?

A parent should be as protective as they feel it is appropriate.

Personally, my opinion (as worthless as it may be) is that parents would be a lot better off paying a little less attention to what other parents do or don't do.
