Is it ok to let baby to fall down for them to learn? Will it hurt their brain? As I don't wish my kids too protective also. My baby 8months now. I bought a thick carpet for her (2inch). She always unaware and fall behind while sitting.

I prefer them to fall once or twice to learn tat wad they did was dangerous & its painful.. children nowadays r smarter than we think... after a while of "nagging" & some preventative measures, they will learn hw to navigate safely eg climbing dwn w feet touching the ground etc...
