Child proofing is one thing, but some parents take this to a whole new extreme and never seem to be able to let go of the safety harness they have around their children. While you might think that there are dangerous out there and you’re simply protecting your kid, the truth is you’re not always going to be there to shield them from harm. Learn to let go and let your child make his own decisions. This will help him mature faster and ensure a skill base that will help him handle any situation life throws at him later on.
