[quote=Anonymous]OP you'd do well to put this on the Private School and Public School forums. It seems to be mostly the younger moms (and some dads) who do this sort of thing. I saw it on college tours and at dorm check-in for first-years a few years ago. The helicoptering going on - wow. At some campus tours instead of hanging back and asking questions after the kids have a chance to, they scurry to the front of the line for the best "view" and monopolize the Q&A opportunities. Colleges now have to have strategies to separate first-year students from their parents on "drop off" day because the parents WON'T LEAVE. Those of us who are older moms (full blown Baby Boomers) had parents didn't get involved in our lives at all for the most part. We definitely helicopter more than our parents, but we're nothing like Baby Boomers on the cusp of Gen X or Gen X parents. Therefore, posting in these other threads might make some sense.[/quote]
