Helicopter Parents

I was at a job fair today and saw a man walking around the job fair with his daughter talking to companies about job opportunities.  I am a protective parent like the next guy but I think this crosses the line.  It is not the job of the parent to go with their child to speak with companies about job opportunities.  There needs to be a point where a parent has to let go.  Sure, give them advice, counsel, and direction but do not go to a job fair with your children.  You are not their agent, you are their parent.
