Are you (or were your parents) (or would you be) a free range parent or a helicopter parent, or somewhere in between?

There seems to be a range of parenting philosophy with Free Range Parenting on one extreme and Helicopter Parenting on the other.

Imagine a scale, ranging from “Extreme Helicopter” at 10 on one side and “Extreme Free Range” at 10 on the other, and a “0” right smack dab in the middle. Where would you place yourself (or maybe your parents, if you are not a parent yet)?

Edit: Let’s discuss the “whys” as well.
