before anyone says i am too anxious..please give me a chance to ask my questions...mumsnet is the only place i can turn to and has been of invaluable help to me
recently been explaining the concept of boo boo to my little one but am worried may have overdone it. is that bad..he had bumped head a lot so been teaching him this
but now when on a slide, stairs, chair etc he keeps saying boo boo and seems well held back now..and stops doing anything
no win situation - let them fall and hurt
teach them and they dont try things out
but was wondering if at least saving him some bruises till he understands more/moves better was actually a good thing to do
was thinking not today when little one was just standing on top of slide not going down saying boo boo
