Not everything in life can be about showing the right amount of concern. Sometimes presence of mind and use of common sense is a must.
Let me give you a real life example.
About a year ago, my younger son had just started to walk and we were visiting his grandparents in Mumbai. We were in the playarea downstairs where some older girls were swinging very high. He stood next to me watching in awe. I turn to ask my SIL something and he chose that very moment to go chase the swing.
In a matter of seconds he was going to be under the swing and most likely get his head/back injured. I could have jumped in the way of the swing to save him and getting myself hurt in the process by the swing or shouting for him to lie down while trying to get the swing to stop before it reached him. What would have been the right thing to do?
Honestly, I chose the latter. Coz if I were hurt or injured, with hubby in a different country, I would have been a very useless mother. But with him sitting down heeding to my shouting at him, he only got a minor scrap on his head, which I was able to attend to given that I was not injured myself.
