Like, I really want to know if anyone has actually witnessed it at the grad level. I'm appalled and intrigued at the same time. LOL.
The most involved my mom got in my grad school prep and experiences was helping me move into my apt.

My dad tried to heli-parent me when I was in grad school. Thank God my mom was still alive and told him to cut that shit out. Also thank God I was raised by my mom and I told him to cut that shit out, too.
What's weird is he never did it in any of my other schooling. Like, not even once. Weirder is he was an elementary school principal and dealt with heli-parents on a daily basis, and knew how annoying they could be.
No joke, he offered to call the registrar for me. "Uh, thanks Dad, but I think I got this. You know, since I'm paying for it myself, I should probably be the one to call them."
