I frequently ask my parents for advice. Dad is very business savvy and Mom is eminently sensible. In the past, I've even asked them to read over my resume to get their opinion. It would be foolish not to use such good resources. And, they always enjoy it.

But, I don't think I'd ask them to come to the job interview with me. I think that I'd automatically DQ anyone who brought Mommy to any interview that I've conducted.

Hi wbill-

We're reading from the same sheet of music. I turn to my parents for their insights because they are very wise. Similar to you, a candidate who visited my place of business and brought anyone to the meeting would be disqualified right on the spot.

That's the point, they're there to give advice, not give your answers for you at interviews, write up your resume for you, do your homework for you, etc.
