You won’t always be there for your kids and that’s a normal part of life, which is why you need to foster them with coping skills to further improve their stress tolerance as they gradually become more independent and learn to navigate challenges on their own. Moreover, you shouldn’t do bubble wrap parenting as it negatively affects their development even though your overprotectiveness is out of pure love and concern.
