Using work for you parents as ECs

[Medikit]

I helped my father, a dentist, during a summer in the lab cleaning his tools and cleaning down the ops after they finished with patients. I also help maintain the computer network there at the office. Should I list both of these as EC's or will they be looked down upon because the contact person is my parent.

It?s not like he is writing an LOR for you. I?d use it; you spent the time and effort no matter who (or is that whom....frick....I'm getting a 1 on VS) you were working with.

If I do poorly it'll be the only thing I think about again...... (not really but it will seem like that at the time....)
