<p>I have been hearing more and more about helicopter parents lately, and I wanted to share with you an interesting blog post that I found. It categorized the different levels of "hovering" parents and is definitely an informative (and funny) read.</p>
<p>I cannot believe that parents are hacking into their children's facebook accounts! Where do you fit in?</p>
<p>(also posted this in the parents forum but thought I would extend it to the entire community)</p>
<p>I'll tell you one thing, parents can NOT search your post history on any message board. That's simply too advanced for them.</p>
<p>^ hehe, that's really true. my dad caught me posting here and he went on about how i'll die if i post on the internet. then the next day he tried to disconnect the internet, but of course i thwarted that measure. he's just ridiculous..my mom's a little bit more normal.
overall:
my parents are a mix of toxic and blackhawk..</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>This isn't entirely accurate, I would say...</p>
<p>Yes it is. It's a mix of computer illiteracy and willful ignorance caused by being scared of what they might find.</p>
<p>Traffic and Rescue, if that much. Pretty good balance I'd say.</p>
<p>Searching through post history is easy. Click on the name, find more posts. Either your parents are exceptionally computer illiterate, or they just pretend to be.</p>
<p>Although I do agree with the "afraid of what they might find".</p>
<p>Football, I have personal experience to the contrary.</p>
<p>has anyone noticed that helicopter parent ALWAYS get peeved off when they find a story in the news about the importance of not spying on kids or if their kid's teacher complains?</p>
<p>"There are just some people who don't understand the importance of constant supervision. It encourages them to do well in school. On the other hand, ...blah blah blah........"</p>
