I think a big part of that is helicopter parenting. If your parent jumps in to save the day before you've even had a chance to realize you made a mistake, it's more difficult to figure out how to solve problems and be resilient. I probably wouldn't have much confidence either if I was always being rescued when I wasn't doing whatever at the level of an experienced adult.

I was a scout leader for my kids. Once you get out of cub scouts, it's supposed to be youth led. The adults are just there to keep things from completely going off the rails and provide support. I felt like I spent more time keeping parents from trying to save the day than anything else. Kids need to make mistakes to learn from them. If you have coping skills, you can move on and not let it ruin the outing.
