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.

that sucks.
my mum was never that bad, but I can see where you're coming from. I still love her, she's my mum, but sometimes i don't like her for the fuck ups she left me with.
But don't be like that for the rest of your life matey, get out there in social situations and try to deal with this stuff. It WILL be hard work at first cos you're trying to teach yourself to behave in a scary new way, but it gets easier with practice, trust me.

I would add to this...
...don't let the bad bits cloud what's left of your time with your mother as you'll end up hating yourself for doing so.
She made mistakes, there's no denying that, but she did so because she loved you and was worried about you.
