[quote=Anonymous]I understand your frustration, and I get it since I have a little guy who is the sweetest and gentlest little dude you'll ever meet, and who regularly gets run over by the other boys (even though he is bigger than some of them!). It hurts me every time, but that's life, and they're not going to learn to be self-sufficient and do for themselves if they don't take a few knocks. Now, if a kid is being deliberately too rough, that is one thing, but if your kid gets knocked down by another kid who is just overly exuberant, well, that's just how it goes when you're a kid. I just tell him wow, good thing you're tough! And off he goes. I think we all have a tendency to helicopter these days, even if we think we aren't hovering. It's a hard but necessary thing to take a step back sometimes and let your kid find his or her own way and figure out a way to deal with life's little frustrations, including not getting enough eggs or getting knocked down.
