My four year old is overly friendly with strangers. How do I instil a healthy sense of caution without dampening his bright friendly spirit? He is incautious with strangers unaware of potential danger I am always watching him play I play with him as well , but he still manages to talk to kids parents
It's so hard we just want to make the right choices for them
Awww my son is 7 and he is still like this, it is hard because I don’t want to harden him ya know? He is a gentle sweet soul. Now that he is older though he doesn’t try to hug every and anyone anymore lol so that is a plus
It's hard to raise kids we just want to make the right choices for them
I’m dealing with this as well. My daughter loves everyone and will talk to absolutely anybody.
@zel332k, it’s so hard because I don’t want to scare her and her be afraid of people She will literally say hi to absolutely anyone. I work at a diner and she’s there a lot and she will go up to customers and tell them her name and just talk to them then ask to go home with them. I have no clue to to stop it.
@llcoolkay my child too since the time he can walk he would just hug strangers and before I used to chase him to get him it was to late I always feel uncomfortable when he is friendly like that I just hope we get some answers about children being overly friendly and trustworthy
@zel332k, I will tell her about strangers but she feels like if she knows their names they aren’t strangers anymore
This is my toddler 🤦🏾♀️
