Every parent wonders if they're doing the right thing in raising their children. There tends to be alternating mood swings behind "my way or the highway" and "I'm preparing them for future lifelong therapy" for most folks. In the end, though, I think kids find their own way. It might be right out of the gate, it might be later in life, but one hopes that a bell goes off when they need to take care of their own lives, start their own families, and otherwise attempt to get their cumulative shit together. When they leave the nest, you'll have hopefully given them tools, varying levels of instruction, and an always-available emergency contact number.
