Most everyone has seen those Progressive Insurance commercials where Dr. Rick, a self-help counselor, works with first time home buyers who seem to be turning into their parents.While Rick is not a real doctor, and "parentamorphosis" is not a real thing, but the ads are spot on. They've covered overplanned outings, oversharing personal things in doctors' waiting rooms, trying to help total strangers park their cars and how to put one's mobile phone on silent.
