If you had overprotective parents did it impact on you as an adult?

Just that really. My friend had very overprotective parents as we grew up and it seems to have impacted her as an adult as she struggles to have any confidence in her decisions. What does anyone else think?

I had underprotective parents and made many stupid decisions, so there's definitely a balance to be had.

I was also at the opposite end of the spectrum and was regularly in outright dangerous situations , I will be a much more overprotective parent to my kids.
