Or, future adult child's.
Inspired by a TV show finale that is on here tonight, called "Please Marry My Boy" which, pretty much is exactly what the title promises, Mum's picking women for their sons.
Now obviously its TV, and a set up, (and hilariously over the top, Milena, oh Milena you are brilliant, in a scary kind of way) but its gotten us talking our household, for you, where is that line, when talking about adult children, not teens, between involved and too involved? How much of your thoughts, opinions and values would you try to get your child to take with them into a relationship?
(For example, throughout the show, one of the boys's, Vlad, has been very obviously attracted to one of the contestants, and has flat out told his mother, Milena, that he likes her, Milena's reaction is usually along the lines of "We'll see about that" and keeps pushing Vlad towards a girl he isnt as keen on, but is of similar background and upbringing to Vlad)
