Default Re: Cool new term, \"Helicopter parents\"

Didn't some guy get convicted about a year back for killing his kids hockey coach?
I went to watch my nephew's little league game several years back. When the umpire failed to show they somehow picked me out of the crowd to call the game. I'll never [censored] do that again. Parents from the losing team (who lost by one run) complained so vehemently the game was rescheduled and played again.
Some people just can't take that their kids might not be the best in the world or come out on top every time.
