If a person wants to be hurt and enjoys suffering, then there is no reason not to indulge him in his wont.

Teresa MummertYou've got to learn to let go and let your children fall, and fail. If you try to protect them from hurt, and always rush to their side with Band-Aids, they won't learn about life, and what is true, what works, what helps, and what are real consequences of certain kinds of behavior.

Kami GarciaLove is ease, love is comfort, love is support and respect. Love is not punishing or controlling. Love lets you grow and breathe.

Love is sleeping like puzzle pieces. It's your own garden you protect; it's a field of wildflowers you move about in both freely and together.
