I have heard of this trend before too. Fortunately neither me nor my sister ever thought of bringing our parents to a job/school interview. I remember when I was looking at nursing schools my parents drove me to an out of state admission interview and they waited in the car. The admissions rep actually asked me how I got to the campus and when I told her my folks drove me, she asked to briefly meet them at the end of the interview. I thought it was odd
My son is a millennial and this is him to a T, believe me, I don't want to hold his hand, but he is just so helpless. The only reason he even works is because I cut him off financially, and introduced him to some friends of mine who hire laborers. Now he works only enough to eat and put gas in his car. I had to kick the baby bird out of the nest kicking and screaming. Slowly but surely he is figuring it out.
