Bullying
What better way to guard your children against bullying (from children or adults!) than to draw them into an environment that you have greater control over? Instead of your children
Are HE Children Over Protected?
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. The question really is how do we know how long to protect our children for and when to release them? Is protecting children from potential difficulties at an early age a better preparation for later life than allowing them to be damaged by others around them. Some people seem to say that 'life is hard and it is best to learn that early'. This is not true, life may be hard at times, but it is better to learn strength in a sheltered environment and when mature be able to show that strength where needed.
