remove every obstacle that gets if their child's way. now there is the no rescue parent. today.com took a look at this style. after years of! helping cellos books and lunches to the elementary school mid-day for my two sons, and leaving dinner prep on hold, i made the decision to make for the more rescues. >> i think this concept of for the rescue is a return to typically the way parents parented before we all became hyper competitively obsessed with not having our child fail at anything. >> reporter: so the question is, to rescue or not to rescue? and giordana horn is with us. how are you? >> fine. >> you have five kids. >> i do. >> define it. what counts what doesn't count?

>> so, obviously, let's say hype thettically your child is stuck in a vending machine in maryland, you help your child. what i'm talking about is the day-to-day i characterize as snowplow plavent i parenting, you clear all obstacles. >> your kid is late for an important tryout, you let him be late and miss the team. >> correct. >> your kid forgets a winter coat on a field trip, you don't take a winter coat to that kid? >> how cold is it? >> did you just reach your little, that how you started doing this? >> i did. i had a year of doing a pretty much weekly schlepp back and forth, for bringing a kelo, a coat or you'd go back to the school to get the path folder and i said, you know, you into ed to take more responsibility for what you are doing. it's not mine. >> i'm assuming the did happen over and over again, while you stepped in and helped them, how did you feel afterward?

>> well, i felt aggravated. i felt, you know, i had helped them, so you address the symptom but not the underlying problem t. under underlying problem is their forgetfulness and irresponsible. so i was trying to figure out how to address that underlying issue. >> and now after you have done the "no rescue method" for a while and allowed them to fail or miss a homework assignment, even if it jeopardizes a grade. how do you feel after that? >> you know, i feel bad when i get the phone call. i got one from school, i forgot my chelo, i told them, tell them you forgot. just downstairs actually i got an e-mail, do you know where my notebook is? i need some help? >> there is guilt attached to this. >> of course. >> even if you think you have doing the rightful thing for your forgetful children. >> every parent has this impulse, yoep to disappoint my child. i think the helicopter parenting takes it too far. are you not there to be the

concierge and accommodate every single need. you are there to help them grow ampbtd be autonomous. >> i 'kids are very lucky, are very organized and consciencetious, you wouldn't employ this tactic with them, would you? if they forget something, to me it seems to be a rare and honest mistake. >> correct. i think if you have a one off, forgive, everybody has a bad day, you do, i do. everyone deserves help, especially from someone that loves them. the issue is more within you have a repeat offender, somebody who keeps on not being responsible for their own stuff, then you need to address it this way. >> what kind of response, this has gone viral since you put this up. what response have you been hearing from other parents? >> i think people feel relieved, there is this burden of guilt in parenting. look, if you are working full time outside the home, you can't just respond to every beck and calm of your kid and moreover, i'm saying not only can't you, but you shouldn't for your kid's

good. >> just to end, know your kid, not rescuing doesn't mean not helping and be supportive and show your kids your love, which is the most important lesson anyway. >> thank you. >> let's go over to hoda. all right, coming up, jim's steals and deals, apparently, it's a bargain with these koechlts you will want to click etty clack on the computer for steals like this. . >> you can put them on and text and type. >> all right. i like
