Loving someone so much that you hate them with the same instensity because you're afraid of rejection so you cover up your true feelings with the opposite.

helicopter parent

A parent who is overly involved in the life of their child. Then tend to hover over their every movement and decision. Often times they take control and do tasks on their behalf. They also enjoy broadcasting the details and events of their child's life to anyone who will listen. Helicopter Parents do not ease up with age, in fact as the child grows up the tighter their grasp becomes.

"Are you sure that's a good idea?"
"Where are you going, what are you doing, where is your life going?"
"My child would never do something like that."
"Oh, I just have to tell you what my daughter did..."
"Can I come too?"
"I wish Laura would shut up and stop talking about her daughter - what a helicopter parent."
