I agree with you. Too much protection over kids, may raise insecure adults that frize when dealing with the challenges of life, in all areas.

My mother was a bit protective, but as a rebel, I was very defiant....and many times desobidient. But I did learn a lot, sometimes the hard way. I regret nothing, except the worries that as a teen, I had not the cousciouss to comprehend, and made her go through. The universe gave it all back at me in lessons. Lol

We get what we give.
