Parent would never place limits on their child. They would never place a child in danger. Typically parents place children in situations that impose limitations on the natural state of being a child and then blame the child for not behaving appropriately. The bonded parent doesn’t create conflicts in the first place.

You wouldn’t set limits on the child.  You would use intelligence never to put the child into a situation that’s harmful.  I hear parents taking their child, a little toddler, tiny little toddler in the very middle of their great ah-ha experience, when everything they see in the world excites them and they want to interact with it and they’ll take them into a very posh, sophisticated quiet restaurant, you see where children aren’t really welcome, and they’re supposed to sit there frozen and behave themselves you see.  This won’t work because you just can’t stop that force.  It’s going to drive the child to interaction, or any of the other inappropriate situations in which we place our children all the time.

So the one thing you do is you safeguard their environment.  You simply make their environment safe for them.  You don’t talk to them about safety.  You don’t put into them all the doubts and hesitancies and fears and concerns and anxieties that they might be hurt or they might be violated in some way because that all going to do what, it’s going to be a great block to their spirit.  They’re going to build up a defense system rather than an openness and embrace of their world.  You just make sure that their world is an acceptable safe place for them.  That’s the responsibility we have for our children, not to keep them out of our world, but to make our world safe for those children, appropriate to their stage of development.  That’s a great way to put it.
