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.

I'm noticing this already
and haven't even had my baby yet. We're getting 'advice'/instructions from everyone we know, plus plenty we don't, on the RIGHT way to bring baby up. And I imagine it's only going to get worse over the coming months and years. Can't wait.

Just nod and smile
then do whatever you think is best. Everyone makes mistakes. However, mistakes made in love are a lot better than mistakes made trying to assert your own agenda.

It does get worse
I had to stop speaking to my mum because she could not keep her opinions to herself and that happened three times (I have three children)

The strangers do not stop either
