Sometimes people want help when they don’t need it.
Sometimes they’re unsure of themselves or afraid to make a decision. Instead of deciding, they use you to make the choice for them—disguised as a request for help. They may not even realize they’re doing it.
If you don’t recognize this pattern, they begin to rely on you to answer these “questions” for them. Over time, this dependence weakens their development and limits your ability to focus on higher-value work.
