Answer:

D. helicopter

Step-by-step explanation:

Helicopter parents are called like that because they pay extreme atenttion and get involved in things that nobody asked them to get involved with, they are called helicopters because they hover around their childrens affairs specially at school, where they want to be involved in everything and even doing what Ian´s mom did of asking the professor to raise Ian´s grades.
