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.

Good news on the glass
Saw a piece you posted a while back and was suitably impressed.

If you're not careful, an artist will burst out of that engineer's stomache of yours - Alien-like.

Damned right about consistency and boundaries; can't figure out why all parents aren't given a handbook when their kids are born. Could save a whole lot of bother in the world.

Maybe we should bring out the book...

Good luck with the job-hunting & glass.

As it happens
I've just spent two hours getting a start on another piece. Apparently the thing that I do that everyone seems to like is that I leave a fair bit of open space in my pieces and use slabs of translucent stone as well as glass. I've just built a frame to do this to.

I'm already more artist than engineer at this point. Even were I to get a job this very afternoon I'd still be doing the glass and metal work.
