I wrote something about it some time ago. Parents pulling aside the boss explaining how to deal with their child. My way? "You give them advice on how to work here, don't give it to me. They won't have a job here any longer if you interfere again...."

and this one is a good response
No escape from 'helicopter parents'
but in regards to camps.... it's a shame that people feel such entitlements. I'd rather that they have strict rules as to the behavior and expectations of all parties. I'm sure there is enough market for those that are helicopters and those that let the kids fly by the seat of their pants.
