Parents who hover over your kids at the playground and panic over small tumbles & messes: please stop. If you want to impair your own kid's social, physical, and mental development, that's your business, but when you do it in public you're also messing up *my* kid.
What I do in such situations is explain to my kid that the other parents are overprotective and that they're turning their kids into wimps. Even 2 year olds can get this.

What is your educational stance about your kids about violence and physical altercations in general? I have a great conundrum about the topic, being a child of the 90's i realize I've been bred to hate violence in any form.

When I'm responsible for a young kid, I do step in to stop them from hitting others. Aggression is wrong & toddlers don't know that without being taught. Accidental jostles and play-fighting don't need parental involvement though, IMO.
