I decided to give APSA a miss this year, but now I’m getting envious of my colleagues and their panels.

Envious of those going to the APSA? Gee, this puts the drudgery of parenting in an entirely new perspective. Then again, I was never on an APSA panel where the audience was much larger than the panel, and nobody ever gave me a cool movie nickname in the process.
As for copter parents: I’ll spread David Kirp’s old apocraphyal story. A parent calls the professor to discuss some issue pertaining to their child. The professor says “do you have a pencil? Please take down this number. It’s my parents’ number. Maybe you could discuss this with them.”
