When a child needs a school project done, sometimes the parents (usually the mother) would do it for them. Often the parent is doing the project for their lazy son the night before the project is due. In some cases the kids don't want this much help with the project, it's the parent pushing themselves on it to make themselves look good. Related to Science Fair projects, Ridiculous Procrastinator, Last-Minute Project, and Homework Slave. |

On an episode of Archie Bunker's Place basically all the employees of Archie's bar pitch in to do Stephanie's science project for her. She feels guilty and the teacher tumbles to it right away. | |

In one The Baby-Sitters Club book, there's a science fair coming up and many of the sitters are supervising and helping out clients with their projects. While most just supervise or offer advice, Jessi ends up taking over and doing the bulk of Jackie Rodowsky's project for him. This ends badly when the judges ask him other questions about it and determine that he has no idea. In another Babysitters' book, one of Mallory's brothers is discouraged that another student's math fair project is much more sophisticated than his, but cheers up when one of the judges asks her a question and she can't answer it—her mother did the project for her. |

The Simpsons: Parodied and played with in "$pringfield, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Legalized Gambling", where Lisa and Ralph won "special" awards for their costumes during a school pagent about the fifty United States, as the only two who obviously didn't have parental help making their costumes. (Ralph's costume was a piece of paper he had taped to himself saying "Idaho.") Ironically, Lisa did have her father's help with it. In another episode, Lisa enters an essay contest and while her entry makes it to the top, one of the judges suspects she had help from her father because the standard is higher than might be expected for a child's essay. After talking to Homer for about a minute, she then decides to give her an extra 10 points and thus letting her go to the finals. Another episode had Homer becoming a "helicopter parent", and build Bart's model of Westminster Abbey for him. It had the same punchline - Bart wins an award because it's assumed he didn't have parental help. Similar to this, when Homer helps Bart build a soapbox derby car, it's done so poorly that a judge assumes Bart took the 'no parental help' rule too seriously. In "I'm with Cupid", Marge builds a working model of the human digestive system for Bart the night before it's due. Far from being for Marge's ego, Bart guilted her into doing it herself by waiting until the last minute or else he'd fail. (Nelson destroys it on the bus before they get to school.) An early episode had a father at a science fair who had clearly done the project become so protective of it he insisted his son stay away from it. |

One Baby Blues story had Zoe participating in a school contest to make a poster about recycling. Darryl and Wanda end up doing the whole project, though Zoe is quick to point out to her teacher that the most important part of the poster is her own work...the signature. | |

Arthur deconstructs this in the episode "Muffy Takes the Wheel". The episode's conflict revolves around Muffy wanting to build a miniature car on her own for a school project, but she feels like Ed is taking it over. He's genuinely helping and doesn't come off as too pushy, and he had entered a similar contest as a kid. However, Muffy feels guilty about taking what's basically his work and passing it off as her own. In the end, she makes her own car at the last minute rather than using her father's. | |

There was a Cardcaptor Sakura episode where Sakura put off her homework until the end of the holiday and had to finish it on the last day. Her father gave her some of the answers. It's also shown that her brother Touya (and Yukito) made her birdhouse project for her, but she had to do his chores in exchange. | |

Happens in Reba with Van building a volcano for Jake's science class (though Van is Jake's brother-in-law, not his father). He and Jake we're supposed to build it together, but Van dislikes Jake's ideas and does the project himself. Van mentions that his father used to do the same to him, with one of Van's projects being a dialysis machine. When Reba points out Van's misconduct, he apologizes to Jake and they both decide to build one together. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: "The Cart Before the Ponies" has a variant; the younger ponies are allowed help from an older pony when building their carts for the Applewood Derby, but the Cutie Mark Crusaders find their respective mentors (Rarity and Sweetie Belle, Applejack and Applebloom, and Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo) get so caught up in doing things their way, they take over the project, to the point of actually driving the carts in the big race instead of letting the younger ponies do so! When their bossiness causes a big crash that nearly spoils the Derby, the Crusaders decide they've had enough and call out the older mares for refusing to listen to their mentorees and let them do things their way. | |

In That's So Raven, Corey tricks his parents into completing his school projects for him by pretending to be too incompetent to complete a project of any quality. But then subverted because his actual project was a report, and in it he was trying to prove that if he messed up badly enough, his parents would always cover him. He got an A and punished in the end. | |

In one of the earlier Diary of a Wimpy Kid books, Roderick is terrible with technology and makes his dad type all his essays for him. Because Rodrick’s drafts are riddled with huge inaccuracies that his dad can’t bear to type, he always ends up correcting them and thus doing the bulk of the essay for him. | |

This happens in American Gothic (1995), when Buck (who is actually the devil...or something) does Caleb's science project for him. It becomes An Aesop when Caleb admits in front of his class that he cheated. It turns out that he learned so much about science on his own that he was able to give an impressive speech on the topic anyway. | |
