with time comes experience, and with experience comes wisdom. when you were 16 and had your first child you had no idea ALL the responsibility that would come with bringing that child up right....you have since gained that...kudos to you.....there is no such thing as being over protective of your child.....(assuming you ar enot wrapping him.her in bubble wrap and not letting them out in public...)

it depends on whether the protection is good for baby or not, if it is good then it is wise, if it is not good, then overprotective
