I have a friend who has helicopter parents. The parents would take rotating shifts to fly out and live with them while they were at university (and not in residence) to keep an eye on them. To an extent it's robbed them of their independence and they've lost direction in their life.
The parents truly mean well and love their children, but people don't become strong by relying on a crutch their whole life.
