I've found that the more competent and as a result confident the parents, the less they micro-manage their kids. They don't feel the need to send them to private schools, have them be A students, get into universities, spend less time on their phone etc etc etc. That's just insecure, overbearing parents. There's some subtle irony in the same person who is part of a foundation saving kids in Africa, worrying about phone use. You'd think she'd have a greater perspective on these things.
