Mark Tulin November 23, 2019 You can also get a drone. simplywendi November 24, 2019 even better and cheaper! 🙂 Mark Tulin November 24, 2019 🙂 Liz Gauffreau November 24, 2019 I like the twist at the end that took the helicopter mother out the usual stereotype. Reply Mark Tulin November 24, 2019 Yes. Give her a good reason instead of just being a control freak. Reply Robert Parker November 25, 2019 A fun story, I like the twist also. maybe she could pick up some Uber fares, and drop off a few parcels for Amazon, to help defray the costs of the chopper Reply Mark Tulin November 25, 2019 I didn’t think of that, Robert. I think she could actually profit. 👍 Reply tara caribou November 26, 2019 Ahhh yes, the helicopter-parent… forgetting to allow the kid(s) the chance to make mistakes (or succeed)… Reply Mark Tulin November 26, 2019 Yes, and how to get the parents anxiety out of our heads. 😎☮️ Reply tara caribou November 27, 2019 I’m pretty mellow, myself. I figure they’ll figure it out. Either they’ll learn or they won’t 🤷🏼♀️ Mark Tulin November 27, 2019 I’m with you on that, tara. Theresa November 26, 2019 Good story. But I’m glad I was able to make the choices I wanted. It made me the person I am today.
