Over-parenting means to me that the parents are too strict and harsh with their kids. Everything is the kid's fault and the parent spends more time disciplining than raising and talking to the child.
I knew a couple of parents who only addressed the child if the child was doing something wrong and then it always went fro 0-100 very quickly. No talking or connecting, just yelling and hitting. The kids were fearful and resentful. Definitely future delinquents when they get a chance to be away from their parents' control. Or kids who can't wait to go off to college so they can pretend their parents don't exist.
