You think your child is a special snowflake and while they very well might be, that certainly doesn't make them infallible. Your child is 100% unique, but you often urge them to believe that they are better than the rest. You would do anything for your child. Be it helping them put together a project or baking cookies at 5am because they forgot to tell you the night before. Your kid is your everything and that's reflected in how you treat them!

In your opinion, reality is reality. There is nothing you can do to shield them forever. Because of this you and your children have a more friend-friend relationship than parent-child.

You're a magic bullet parent! You're all about quick fixes and band aids when it comes to parenting. Hey, parenting is stressful, we get it. Sometimes a quick fix is just enough to get you through the day. You're ability to think on your toes and work under huge amounts of stress is truly impressive. But remember, even band aids fall off. Think more long term when it comes to solving problems!
