Is it bad to be too over protective? I was in my IDIS class today and before class started my professor was asked the question "if you knew your son murdered someone would you turn him in" without hesitation my professor said "no". I smiled because I completely agreed with him and I was happy to hear zero hesitation and thought to myself "hmm, maybe I'm not weird". I laughed and explained to him that I feel the same way. We got on the subject of me and my 'mama bear mentality' I simply explained if anyone messes with my family (again family embodies more than blood related) I would hurt them, okay FINE I said if anyone ever hurt my family I would slit their throat...too much? Well even if it is that's who I am-over the top.
Am I the only one out there who holds their family/friends/dogs (oh yes I said dogs) above everything else? Am I the only one who steps inbetween a loved one and someone just being mean?
Well, I did get a great compliment at the end of this conversation (yup, the entire time the pre-class conversation was going on I was debating this stuff) I said "well, maybe it isn't a good thing I have children if I am this OVER protective" in which the professor said "I think that is what is going to make you a great mom"
I'LL TAKE THAT!
but back to the original thought..can you really be OVER protective
