That’s the way of a parent. Finding a balance matters. Like you said if the protection get too much, a taste of freedom can make then go wild. Or sometimes make them ignorant of some things they should be knowledgeable about.
And too much space also impacts negatively. No doubt. A balance is what matters most.
You are doing good ma.
The two are important, don't over protect and don't give so much space..this calls for being alert always and sensitive about the children life...it's a whole lot
