You want to save your kids from ever feeling any pain or anything bad. This is easy in the early years, they're with you most of the time. When they're little, a kiss and a hug fixes everything. They're back up, running, playing, and happy. When they're bigger and off to school it gets a little more tough. They go to school, they're away from home more. You worry about things like how the other kids will treat your kid, whether or not they'll have their feelings hurt, or whether or not those around them will understand just how special they are.
It's hard to accept the fact that, as parents, we can't protect them all the time. We learned all of these things when we were kids and our parents were there to pick up the pieces. Sometimes a kiss and a hug still fix everything and, if not, I'll be there to keep trying. Love you buddy.

It's so hard when your kids grow up and you can't follow them everywhere. You teach them to be good and nice and then someone slaps them in the face with it. GGRRRRRRR!
As long as he has love and acceptance and home, he will conquer anything!
