Parents need to set clear expectations along the way, but also think about the tone in which you're communicating those messages. A healthy distance is when you can care very much about how they are and offer help and guidance - but don't own every single thing that they do. It's sort of like picture how loving you can be with your niece or nephew or your best friends kid,. You don't feel obligated to tell them precisely what to do all the time...that's the healthy psychological distance i think we're going for as parents.
