Our kids are more vociferous because we give them the freedom. But they also have to learn the difference between being frank and blunt. It is a tough balance to ensure. I am sure as she grows older, she will learn it.Rachnahttp://rachnaparmar.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3320353078282608692.post-57980768241541020652014-08-28T21:12:19.679-07:002014-08-28T21:12:19.679-07:00So cute!

You must realize that you have given them a warm and secure environment at home, a fearless one. This is a very good thing and if you see it in perspective such children are obviously intelligent because they don't take things lying down plus with such weird things happening all around us you can be sure that they will not keep quiet and that is very important. You definitely are a great mom! Cheers to that. Let her be herself. Such kids are usually very sensitive. They will themselves come to you and ask if they think they have done something out of line.

But it's hard to teach them when and where to actually speak up and when not too. Like you I too have now retreated from shushing him and have let him speak up. Will wait to see which path this takes us...hoping for good.....Thanks for sharing.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14278632812983627301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3320353078282608692.post-85944775534387976472014-08-27T19:05:33.919-07:002014-08-27T19:05:33.919-07:00Thanks Anil for dropping by yes I am much better n...Thanks Anil for dropping by yes I am much better now .. have a great day !!
