Isolationist parenting

Isolationist parenting is a parenting style where parents separate their children from the outside world or limit their interaction with it. This could be done for a variety of reasons such as religious beliefs, fear of negative influences, or wanting to control the child’s upbringing and environment completely. Isolationist parents may homeschool their children, limit their social interactions, and restrict access to media and technology.

While this parenting style can protect children from harmful influences, it can also lead to social and developmental issues as the child may not develop important social skills or be able to adapt to different environments. It is also associated with increased risk of anxiety and depression in children due to lack of social interactions.

It’s important for parents considering this approach to balance protection with exposure so that children can learn how to navigate the world independently while still being safeguarded against potential harm.

This could also manifest as only rooting for your own child. It takes a village but also You need to root for other people's children to create a more cohesive community and society
