Background
When children play, adults often try to control or take over certain types of interaction without realizing it. They can sometimes put their own fears and issues onto the kids. They say things like, “It’s not safe,” “That’s not nice,” “Here’s what you’re going to do,” or “I would feel such-and-such a way, so you can’t do this,” (breaking up a friend’s Lego creation, for example). These experiences are not the adults’ experiences to have. They are the experiences of the children. Children need to practice these types of skills and some adults unintentionally rob children of these learning benefits.
