Is There a Difference Between Enabling and Allowing?

How do parents know when it's time to back off and let their child experience the consequences? iasy don't like the negative use of enabling. I see enabling is positive.

If you know the superintendent or the board, ask them to bring in somebody to do a, a d h training a. Do all you can on your end. When you go to the ip or whatever, you you see what they're doing, and you say, this is what i'm going to do at home
