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.

Looks in the mirror...
Sounds like me. 8(
OW! Out of bed before tea time. I can relate to that.
I got Sleeping Beauty an apprenticeship in a very successful bar in our home town. Guess who pays her salary?? Guess who did all the leg work?? Guess who had to run up a tab the size of a small city budget to get this position??
But... She does not know. She thinks that 'Little Miss Successful' got the job by her own sweet self. But after a whole summer of tripping over her and her friends bodies in the living room, AFTER I had finished a whole days work I had to do something.
She goes shopping every weekend now. Guess who gloats about her great job and rubs all her new clothes in her friends faces?
I win?? 8(
