As a parent...I feel its a natural reaction to be protective of your children...

So true. Look at animals - a mother cat or dog will retrieve her young the first few times they venture away from their den. It's a very strong instinct.

I've seen a bitch do nothing but go and fetch adventurous puppies, one after another, to the point where the poor thing must be exhausted.

If its accosted it more likely to happen by a "family member' than anyone else.

Everyone knows their own children's boundaries so give them a bit of freedom and stop worrying, its not likely to happen.
