When I said about the dangers of glass in greenhouses everyone (most people on here) said I was a 'helicopter mum/grandmother). I am pleased that it has been agreed that safety glass for school children, or plastic is a must. I would rather be a 'helicopter grandmother' just more aware of the dangers of glass, ponds with small children. My daughter has been told not to pick her child up from school when she is 11 as she has to learn about secondary school and probably knife crime and getting lost on the way home. My daughter can't drive (due to illness) and she will have to walk, travel by bus. I will be a 'helicopter mother/grandmother') and in the dark evenings would not like her to have to walk home alone. I will do what I did with my children, take the dog for his evening walk and just happen to be around (hiding behind a tree) to see if they are OK. I agree I am a 'helicopter grandmother'.
