Well-Meaning

Well-meaning, when someone tries to help someone else or do something good without realizing what they're doing is only harming that person. One example of a well-meaning person is a helicopter parent, they want their child to be safe but they don't understand that they sometimes want some privacy.

Boy 1: I know my mom is a well-meaning person, but I just wish she understood what she's doing is causing more harm than good
Boy 2: I feel you man
