The article focuses on over-parenting as a source of anxiety. I think it's interesting how much this view has in common with Freud.

According to Freud, people repress thoughts, memories, and desires. This repression is necessary for people to live in a modern, civilized context. But repression also causes negative emotion, including anxiety. In Freud, parents are key to initiating their children into repression. Over-parenting could lead to overly repressed children, which could in turn cause more anxiety.
