[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Two types of helicopter parents. The good kind who are gradually pulling back but still helping their special needs kids through the journey of life. The bad kind who are vicariously looking for a second chance at success in life by trying again as their kids constant surrogate. Unfortunately the bad kind outnumber the good kind at least 5 to 1 in every university setting. The worst ones accompany there kids to job interviews. [/quote] Are you saying they sit next to their kid during the actual job interview? Really? Everything in this culture is 'do it alone' whether that be go to a job interview alone or wherever else (fill in the blank). [b]But what's wrong with a parent (or friend) accompanying them to an interview for moral support (waiting in the car or office lobby) or to park the car while their kid (or friend) goes in[/b]? [/quote] Please, please, please tell me you're joking. [/quote]
