Well I can't say that I haven't thought about putting her in a bubble once or twice...I would like to say that I am a very protective parent. It is our job as parents to take care of our children. It was hard sending her off to kindergarten at a new school, with new people teaching her and getting on the bus. Up until that point we only had family watch her, etc. so it took a lot of faith and prayers but we did choose a great Christian school so that helped a lot!
Children learn from making their own choices and mistakes so we are starting to let her make her own small decisions (age appropriate).
She is a very bright little girl who loves God and her family and makes great choices. I have been told on many occasions that we are doing something right!!
No,I don't consider myself a over protective parent,but leave it to my family,friends,and other people I am,and I don't have a problem with them calling me over protective,because I can count on one hand how many times my children been to the Dr. for broken bones,and injurys.keeping my children from sex,mental,and sick people in schools,churches,friends, and strangers.making sure nobody abruse my kids.you just can't talk to my children anyway you want to,I will stop you and my child will to. you have to respect my children and me and we give respect back.I don't allow people to do or say anything around my children.I gave my children names at birth,thats what we expect to be call by our names and not your sugar mama or salty papa,if you know what I mean.like I said before what ever people think let it be said I am an over protected parent and will always be for my children.
