Helicopter Parents
Helicopter parents
They are at school daily
Begging to stay longer
Criticizing other people’s children and the teacher
Wanting to bring their lunch
And take naps with their kindergarteners
Helicopter parents
Send long rambling emails to the fourth grade teacher
Why did you say this?
Why did you do that?
What did you mean when you….?
Why do you always pick on little Henry?
Helicopter parents
A teacher’s nightmares
Following their child to college now
Enrolling in the same classes
Demanding to see their child’s grade card
The college professors laugh them out of the lecture hall
