I need some advice Ladies.....I am a stay at home Mom with an 18 month old and a 3 month old. I know that I need to bring my 18month old out to play with other kids her age but I dont have too much time (or energy) to do that alot. So today I brought my daughters over to a friends house to play (my friend has a 2 year old girl) and at one point my friends daughter was choking my daughter....and my daughter had this terrified look on her face (and of course we stoped the rough housing immediatly). And she just kind of "took it" from this other girl with out fighting back. Im worried because i have these nightmares that someone is going to hurt my child and these are thoughts that i cant bear to think of. When i saw my daughters face I just kinda shut down....I wanted to go home! I am being a total "mother hen" but i know that it is important to let her play with other children...I just dont want her to be hurt. How do i teach my child to stand up for herself AND how do I stop being so worried over EVERYTHING.
