Helicopter parent

I never thought I was one of those parents.

You know, the kind that are over protective, hovering, won't let the kid do anything without freaking out that they are going to get hurt.


Well, Nathan just got a new skateboard. I had seen him try to ride the neighbors and it wasn't pretty. So I bought the protective gear to go with it. He could hardly move because of all the padding.

This is what he looked like most of the time that first day.
I am glad I bought the padding and was a little over protective.
OUCH!.
