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.

The consequences of not thinking....
Not quite something about my parents but these things have been said by my darling sister in front of our 'rents:

While arguing with her husband; "You think you're so witty and araldite!". He just burst out laughing.

"What's that stuff they put on roads. You know, like tar stuff. Oh yes, albumen."

"I want to buy a new car with this scrappage thing. One of the cheap ones like a Hatsforyou [Daihatsu]."

"Why have they pulled the bed in front of the fire? It'll be too hot for them. And that huge mirror above it will just annoy them when they try to sleep!" (I looked at my father and just raised my eyebrows.)

And one from my mother while looking at a new house in 1981: "I do like the dildo rail going round the room."

I know there are many more that I've forgotten in my drunken hazes but for now, That is all.

Dildo rail
We've got one of those things, too.
Amazing that a house built in 1932 knew that I'd need something to put all my 5.1 cables on.....

No idea
I don't have a clue why it's called a dado rail. Probably something to do with Italians....
