We all know what a Helicopter parent is, and we know for sure we are not one...or are we? Wait. When did I start watching over my child's every move? In this episode we talk about what is a Helicopter parent, the downsides to hoovering over your child, and we have Britney take a quiz to determine if she is a helicopter parent. Also, Whitney talks about having to be back on a boat, one of her worst nightmares!
