This is a question Helicopter Parents

Back when young ScaryDuck worked in the Dole office rather than simply queuing in it, he had to deal with a claimant brought in by his mum. She did all the talking. He was 40 years old.

Have you had to deal with over-protective parents? Get your Dad to tell us all about it.

TV
My parents didn't buy a television until I was 21, as my mother felt it rotted the mind (she has a good point).

This of course meant that I would always go straight to my friend's house after school to indulge in a solid dose of children's TV, and whenever we visited my grandparents I would greet them with a request to turn the gogglebox on.

We weren't allowed to watch Sesame Street or Grange Hill though - the first was too American, and the second was a bad influence.
