I think you’re right, they’re probably stronger than we anticipate and maybe not all ‘other kids’ are as mean as we think they’ll be.
It’s hard knowing what to do for the best some times!

This rings so true with me, trying to encourage our children (especially our girls) to be anything they want to be, but at the same time we have this enormous need to protect our kids from feeling hurt or pain from others. I’ve pondered on this dilemma a fair bit and I think a lot of it has to do with our hang ups from our own childhood. I reckon at the end of the day our kids are probably much more robust than we give then credit for. But also, we’re just doing the best jobs we can as mums that love them to bits. xxx
