| Children with intrusive parents are self-critical, anxious and, in some cases, depressed, according to a study by the National University of Singapore.
The findings were backed by Australian academics, including Mark Dadd, director of the Child Behaviour Research Clinic at the University of Sydney, who said children with intrusive parents were at the same risk in Australia.
The study was conducted from 2010 to 2014, and assessed 263 seven-year-olds from 10 schools.
To find out if parents were intrusive, researchers gave each child a puzzle to complete within a time limit and told their parents they could help at any time.
