Not all parents are useless or evil. There are quite a few who actually seem interested in their children's welfare. Sure, they might be a little overprotective or annoying, but they mean well. And then there are parents who take the noble principle of looking out for their kids, and go a bit overboard. Just as a Knight Templar or a Well-Intentioned Extremist commits all sorts of illegal or immoral deeds in the name of a cause, a Knight Templar Parent does equally questionable things to ensure his or her child's safety. While a normally protective parent would have a Very Special Episode about telling their kid not to buy illegal drugs, a Knight Templar Parent would track down and kill every drug dealer in town. Just to be sure.

Just to be sure. When the kids grow up and flee the nest as fast as their battered sense of independence can carry them, this parent is demoted to Meddling Parent. Though this may be difficult if it doubles up with My Beloved Smother. The Evil Matriarch is often an extreme version of the Knight Templar Parent, though by no means always. See also My Beloved Smother. An older brother who will protect/avenge his younger sibling by any means neccesary is a Knight Templar Big Brother, which is an extreme version of Big Brother Instinct. For Knight Templar Parents minus the Knight Templar, see Good Parents. Examples of Knight Templar Parent include:
