As parents we are given a duty of protecting our children. Some parents take that responsibility to heart! However, I believe there is a little grey area we have to explore, because "Over Protecting" is a real thing, and sometimes it can have a serious backfire that will disable your child's ability to adapt to the real world. We learn from the lessons that knock us down, "The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall." - Nelson Mandela
