A child who is constantly worried about feels like there is a reason to worry about themselves, and therefore stays safe in their behaviour and may carry with them an almost permanent sense of mild anxiety.

Safety is great, but not if it means that they can't ask a stranger for directions or pursue their dreams.

There is a difference between worry and concern- worry is expecting bad things to happen, while concern much more mild, and is generally about wanting good things to happen.

It seems to me that the difference between the feminine and the masculine approach to parenting is that, if the weather is cold and the child wants to go outside, the mother will prevent the child from doing so because she wants to prevent the child from feeling any pain, while the father will allow the child to go outside in order to experience why the parents both don't want the child to go outside. This gives the child the experience necessary to be their own authority on whether they should go outside.

The feminine approach, of preventing the child from experientially understanding why the child should not go outside in cold weather because we want to protect them, may create a persistent yearning in the child to want to go outside. They then may stop asking, which will delight the parent, but deaden the child's connection with their explorative intuition, and life will seem a little bit more boring.
