Parenting is a hard job. Worrying about schools, clothes, when it's time to have "The Talk", and worst of all, worrying if your child will get sick or hurt. Sometimes, TV parents will go a little too far in preventing this. The kid sprained his knee? He is wearing a full BDU and has a leash. The kid gets ill? From now on, he is in a plastic bubble. Over-reactive parents are a quick source of comedy in any series surrounding children. Depending on the perspective, it could be a Knight Templar Parent situation or just a one-shot gag that is never referenced again. Sometimes the parent may get over it after the child, another parent, or a close friend gives them an Anti-Smother Love Talk. Other times...perhaps not. Some shows will just skip the parent aspect and focus on the child's overreaction which will lead to an Aesop about confronting your fears. Or it may be a protective older sibling who is the worrier. See Also: Post-Robbery Trauma, Knight Templar Parent. Can cross over with A Lesson Learned Too Well. In the event that all these worries are justified, see Properly Paranoid. May result from Strict Parents Make Sneaky Kids. Compare Boyfriend-Blocking Dad when the daughter's virtue is at risk. Can also be done by a Safety Freak who isn't necessarily a parent. |

Lara and Nora from Twig are a pair of artificially created organisms that can communicate with each other across great distances. The intent of the scientists who created them was that they would accompany military squadrons into the field and act like a Bio Punk radio. In order to ensure the safety of such valuable pieces of logistical gear, the two of them were programmed with the urge to flee from violence - the same violence that they would need to stay and report on if they're to be of any use to the military. The other Lambs immediately comment on how it would have been better to instead let them make their own decisions about whether it would be better to either run from danger or to stay and help the rest of the military neutralize the danger. | |

In "Cat City Safety Patrol" from Pete the Cat, Dennis becomes this after a fall on a sidewalk pothole. He's fine because of his turtle shell but starts to worry that others could get hurt because they don't have shells. The others help him to see that his fears are really more due to what happened to him and that sometimes you just have to be brave. | |

Franklin plays this straight twice and subverts it once. In "Franklin and the Fire," Franklin becomes worried about fire after a fire at the general store run by Mr. Mole and tries to remove anything from the house that he thinks could be a fire hazard, including candles and a toaster. His parents help him by having a fire drill. In another story, "Mother Hen Franklin," Franklin becomes over-protective of his little sister Harriet after she gets hurt in an accident, covering her toys in soft foam and refusing to let her ride at more than a snail's pace on her bicycle. In this case, his mother helps him by reminding him of times such as when he got a little scrape playing hockey, but she comforted him and let him keep trying. "Franklin Plays it Safe" is the subversion. In this one, Franklin and his friend Bear start becoming militant about safety after Mr. Marmot, the village safety inspector, tells them that it's "better to be safe than sorry." When one of the branches supporting their tree fort develops a crack, they worry that it might be unsafe and try to keep their friends from playing in it. Franklin even has a nightmare of it blowing down, with everyone inside. Everyone eventually gets tired of Franklin and Bear telling them what to do and they head off to play in the tree fort, only for it to blow down just as Franklin imagined, but thankfully without anyone in it. Everyone is immediately apologetic to Franklin and Bear and the tree fort is rebuilt with adult help. |

Scrubs had an episode in which Jordan frets over Dr. Cox allowing their son on a dangerous climbing frame, and the last scene showed him in so much safety gear he couldn't move, even if he wanted down. Meanwhile, Cox himself was horrified that Jordan allowed the kid to be held by other people, all of whom were, of course, covered in germs. Both, however, were justified in their concerns. The boy is far too young for Cox to let him play high up by himself, and Jordan was passing him around at the hospital—where the risk of someone having a disease is increased by eleven-twelve percent. | |

A storyline from Sesame Street involved Telly breaking his arm after playing tag. Following his recovery he wraps himself up in pillows in order to protect himself, only to realize that this means he can't move and must remove it to have fun. Cue the Aesop. In a 2002 episode Baby Bear hurts his nose when playing with Telly, and Telly becomes worried that they cannot play anymore without it happening again, even by doing something as simple and harmless as singing the Alphabet. |

In PS238, Tyler attempts to invoke this trope on himself during his first training session with Badass Normal The Revenant - he picks out so much safety gear that he couldn't practically move at all because he didn't want to go out on a superhero patrol. The Revenant catches on and makes him take off the more superfluous bits. Tyler's parents' behavior, on the other hand, is a complete aversion to this trope. They are two of the setting's most powerful super-beings, and they're fairly open about hoping that attending PS 238 will expose Tyler to something (i.e. radioactivity, bizarre chemicals, magic, alien tech, other dimensions) that will trigger super powers they assume Tyler is destined to possess. Almost all of those things would just kill Tyler if he were completely normal...which he is. |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: Toph was born blind, so her parents spent her entire life making sure she couldn't leave their home. Unfortunately, they were so obsessed with protecting her that they never noticed her prodigious earthbending talent that allowed her to "see" almost as well as other people, with only writing and colors as things she couldn't learn. She even managed to sneak away and become a multiple champion of an underground (literally) fighting ring, and later invents metalbending, a discipline thought to be impossible. It takes Toph singlehandedly saving her father and her friends from a cave-in through metalbending for him to finally realize his daughter is not a helpless baby but the most powerful earthbender in history. This happens after Aang beats the Fire Lord with her help. | |

On Goldie & Bear, when the King's Men arrive in Fairytale Forest, they deem everything they spot dangerous and make a huge list of rules that prevent everyone from doing pretty much everything, including no reading, no swimming in the water, no sitting on walls, etc. Finally, Goldie gets so fed up with it that she decides to do a bit of Loophole Abuse by figuring out a way to have everyone swim in the sky because there was no rule specifically saying that they couldn't do that. After ending up having to be rescued while trying to keep the Three Little Pigs from doing something supposedly unsafe, they come to realize they went overboard and amend the rules to say that the residents of Fairytale Forest can do all of the things that were banned before, so long as they make sure to be careful. | |

In one episode of Phineas and Ferb, a future version of Candace manages to put a stop to Phineas and Ferb's summer activities by traveling back to the events of the first episode and showing their mother. Unfortunately, Moral Guardians overreacted and started child-proofing everything from dismantling playground equipment to selling pre-colored inside-the-lines coloring books, and even going as far as sealing children in People Jars until adulthood. This results in a dystopian Bad Future where Doofenshmirtz finally rules the tri-state area. | |

The film Bubble Boy... Yeah you can probably see where this is going. Lived in a plastic bubble with tubes around the house so he could get around. Eventually went on a cross-country journey wearing a mobile bubble suit. The kid didn't have an immune system and would, in fact, die if taken out of the bubble. Although it turns out his mom was lying to him; he wouldn't die, he had a perfect immune system by the time he's an adult, his mother just can't stand to be separated from him. | |

Odd Squad: This is how The Shadow, Season 3's Big Bad, became a villain to begin with. In the final part of the season finale, "End of the Road", she describes how Opal, revealed to be her older sister a couple episodes before, was far too overprotective of her when the two attended the Odd Squad Academy together. Among other things, Opal prohibited her from winning a Capture the Flag competition with an active laser chicken as an obstacle (with her winning the competition instead), only allowed her to use gadgets the size of her palm, and didn't even let her play a tuba — all because she thought it was too dangerous for her. This led her to do a Face–Heel Turn and become The Shadow. Opal comes to realize her mistake and tells the villainess that she had good intentions and was afraid she would get hurt, apologizing for her actions and allowing the pair to make up, with The Shadow performing a Heel–Face Turn. | |

In "The Authority", a visiting Granny Jojo is as overprotective of the kids as she was with Richard that they become as stupid from not thinking for themselves until Nicole intervenes and puts them in a speeding car, forcing them to think for their lives. |

Much of the driving conflict in The Outside is caused by an agoraphobic Satsuki trying to keep Ryuuko safe from the perceived dangers of the outside world by keeping her confined to the indoors. As we can see, this didn't work out well, as Ryuuko sneaking out to play outside got her hurt and ended up with her being removed, on top of making her more vulnerable. Later on, Satsuki realizes that her attempts at protection did more harm than good. | |

Many 1950s Superman stories had imaginary weddings to Lois. Often Lois would be stuck in a bubble, or in his Fortress of Solitude, or even on another planet entirely. All to keep her safe from the mob of people who would surely use her as a hostage. (Never mind the mobs of people who were using her as a hostage anyway.) | |

Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf: In Flying Island: The Sky Adventure episode 31, General Balloon becomes bothersome to Wolffy when he tries to enforce his safety standards on his train house. Besides these standards only being practical for balloons since they pop easily, Wolffy is afraid Wolnie will get mad at him for General Balloon removing the metal accessories from her Limited Wardrobe. The general also frowns on his balloon students playing soccer for this reason until a soccer ball helps him stop Wolffy's train from causing damage to Balloon City. | |

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rowley gets a really cool knight costume for Halloween, but his mom makes so many "safety improvements" to it that Greg can hardly tell what it's supposed to be anymore. She cuts a big hole in the helmet so he can see, covers it in reflective tape, and replaces his sword with a glowstick. | |

Codename: Kids Next Door parodies this by taking it to ridiculous extremes (even for this trope) in its aptly-named episode S.A.F.E.T.Y. with a safety patrol made of Kaiju-sized robots. And if you're thinking that said robots aren't exactly the safest things to be keeping around kids either... well, the episode takes a look into that too. | |

In the South Park episode "Broadway Bro Down," Larry is a little boy with very overprotective parents; his parents always have him wearing a life vest to prevent drowning. During the episode, Shelly convinces him that he doesn't need to wear the vest all the time. Larry drowns at the end of the episode, and the news reporter comments that he might have survived if he was wearing a life vest. | |

In Hey Arnold!, Sid becomes so freaked out by a Germ video that he goes as far as to plastic wrap his entire room and only leaves in a full-body diving suit. | |

Captain Flamingo: Owen-Only's mom goes to ridiculous lengths to protect Owen-Only. He frequently wears a ridiculous amount of safety gear, his house and especially his room has a security system, he goes to the beach with too much sunscreen more often than not and he even had to wear orthopedic underpants (Which the Captain and Lizbeth had to search through dirty laundry at the pool when it got lost). He can't get a break anywhere. | |
