Overprotective Guardians Prints

"I don't know, Tia Carmen. All these outside forces influencing Baldo and Gracie...they scare me. Bad TV, crazy friends, drugs everywhere..."

No Immediate Danger

"I don't care why you crossed the road! I do care however about "how" you crossed the road: without checking for cars first!"

First Steps

Mom, I think you're carrying us too much.

'Honey...you're spoiling that child.'

'It's my mother. She wants to talk to you.'

License, registration, and some I.D. for the small child watching what appears to be a completely inappropriate PG-13 movie in the back.

"Ya know, boys and girls studying alone like this is strictly forbidden in Iran."

Personnel: 'I promised Mom I'd call her when I got here safely - do you mind?'

'I feel much safer living in a gated community.'

"My mom can be a little over-protective ... "

"You mentioned separation anxiety. Don't worry, she'll be all right."

'Which end's the shallow end?'

"No - wait, I haven't read them all yet..."

"Daddy, you're not going to give us a sermon on responsible behavior, are you?"

"Let's talk about your overprotective mother."

I wish my baby came with suction cups so there was a place to put him while I shower.

"Lawsuits must really be getting out of hand."

My mom won't let me walk to school. I might get mugged. She won't let me play sports. I might get injured. West Fester High School. And she won't let me get onto the scales. Why not? It might hurt my self-esteem.

Bring my daughter back at 11 sharp or...

"I still think we should go higher than Factor 0.5."

'For cryin' out loud. All I said was I thought I heard a noise outside last night!'

"I'm sorry your son Billy ran away, but there's not much we can do being that he's thirty-four."

"Mom always was a helicopter mom, and now she's got a drone!"

'Do you think he's starting to out grow the pram?'

"I realize some of your friends have them, but you cannot have a webcam in your room."

"Jimmy has helicoptor parents."

'Darn it Mother! I'm not MISSING! I'm just working DOUBLES this month!'

"Of course I trust your judgement dear. But, it can't hurt to do a quick police check on your new boyfriend."

'Dad - couldn't you miss just a little of my growing up?'

"Do your dad and tia know you broke up with Smiley?"

"I asked my Mom to drive me to school because the bus doesn't have airbags"

one final word. bring my daughter home at 11pm sharp or. . .

"You spoil that child!"
