does parents has the right to meddle on thier children lives if they are of age?

We have a right to meddle in our child's lives- but not too much.. :D We are just there to guide them.

To me once your child is independently taking care of themselves, then you need to back away, and mind your own business. Always be there if your child should need advice, or assistance, but they really need to make their own decisions, and choices.

Well!! It is very rare that children will listen to their parents now a days, not to hurt the feelings, some children will pretend that they are doing what their parents want. If it is a good advice say thanks, if it is not explain the reasons, after all they cannot meddle in youngsters life for a long time.

hi. there should be a limit, especially the kids are working and indpendent financially. and they should think that the kids got their own perspectives. so talking instead of pushing and thinking, they're always right because they are the parents is not the correct way to do it. respect for the children is needed too.

When you are a parent, age has no boundary. You will always worry and care for your child no matter if they are of age. Parents probably don't think what they are doing as meddling. They think they are helping the child they brought into this world. If your parent truly loves you, they will always be there in some aspect of your life.

It is natural for parents who really cared for their children to continue to do so even when their children are already adults, and even have their own family. That's how being parents, to care for their children (and take note of this) for life. The good thing about is that, if you came to value your parents' involvement with your life as a kid, you will continue to feel not being "abandoned" by them once you reach mature age. The problem actually is not so much with the parents genuinely caring for their adult children, but their adult children's perception of being cared. Some will feel offended, being over protected, or even plainly interfered with. But that would be like throwing away the glass because you feel you no longer need to drink milk. The better approach there is for the adult child to change his/her perspective about the caring gestures of the parents. Look at these gestures with gratitude. Instead of running away from them, thank your parents for continuing to care for you. And if you feel uncomfortable still, gently tell them that you can manage the things they fear you cannot. Once they see that your reassurance becomes reliable, they will simply let go, and trust that you can take care of yourself even without them. Never forget: Once you learn to really care about someone, you will never cease to do so unless conflict arises. Your parents who feel the same are those you want to treasure most.
