What's a reasonable time frame for the parents of a teenager who had cancer to stop being so overprotective?

I can really relate to your parents. the situations are not the same but the idea is. When my middle daughter was 4, she lost her eye and a prosthetic was made. She was your typical little red headed tomboy. It never bothered me when she climbed trees, went under her bed for a toy, rode a bike, etc. After she came home from the hospital, I stopped all of that for fear something would happen to the good eye since she could only see out of one eye. Well, we went went back to Boson for a check up, she told on me. Her Dr pulled me aside and said I should let her resume normal activities. I was making her feel handicapped and she didn't feel that at all. With the Dr, myself and my tattle tale little girl, we came to a compromise. Well, she 40 now and as a child wore protective glasses, but she's fine, drives, rides a motorcycle and has never been in an accident. It took a while, but I got used to it. Even though she's 40, I will always be worried about what she does, All my kids know and they say, "mom is a worry wart" Yep, you will always be their pride and joy. They love you unconditionally and even though you think you're alright, talk to them. Have your Dr talk to them. Snitch on them like my daughter did. The Dr will really put their mind at ease. Thank God you're in remission. Come to a compromise with your mom and dad until you speak to the Dr. God bless you
