helicopter dad

normally a parent old enough to be a grand parent Who takes a neurotic over the top interest in their child. Removes the ability for the child to breathe let alone think for themselves. Always present at school, and home directing the child. Will want to live their life through the child to make up for their own inadequacies and miserable childhood. Often send children to fee paying schools which they then see as a green light to interfere at every stage. Helicopter parents eventually become a spokesperson for their child and bore everyone all the time about their child's achievements which they massively over egg.

' hey look there's budgie the elderly , odd, stalker helicopter dad clucking over there ' as he waits at the school gates trying to engage with normal mums.
